Claro Walnut
(Juglans hindsii)
click
on photo for multiple close-ups showing the figure from many angles
This
is the largest board of any Walnut species we have ever had. It conjures
up images of the fantastic one piece tables that George Nakashima used
to make. Claro Walnut has a unique coloration and a lovely smooth texture.
This is one board out of an entire log, and it, like all the others,
is highly figured with not only broken curl but also two beautiful feather
crotches (protected by a sealer). A one in a million board.
Green
to partially air-dried.

Bubinga
(Guibourtia tessmannii)
Table Boards
click on photo for
close-ups of finished and non-finished areas
Called by some woodworkers
African Rosewood, Bubinga is a deep, lustrous, brownish-red color
with a fine, darker striping. The figure makes the wood doubly
beautiful. It is very hard and heavy and takes a glassy, smooth
finish. These were all cut from the same flitch and are sequential
book-matches. A bonus is they are quartersawn and will stay nice
and flat. Kiln-dried.

Bubinga
(Guibourtia tessmannii)
Large Table Top
Called by some woodworkers
African Rosewood, Bubinga is a deep, lustrous, brownish-red color
with a fine, darker striping. It is very hard and heavy and takes
a glassy, smooth finish. Kiln-dried. We have measured this board
inside the tattered sapwood so you will only pay for the sound
heartwood. Will make a stunning square-edged table top. This has
figure, but it is more subtle than in others on our site. This
is more than made up for by the price, which is less than half
that of a highly figured table top.
