West African Ebony Scrap Barrel
Diospyros sp.
Originating in S.E. Asia, especially Indonesia, this Ebony is sometimes called Malaysian Blackwood. The heartwood is dark, sometimes with black stripes or streaking and oftentimes with a greenish cast in sharp contrast to the white to straw colored sapwood. We import this in large cants up to 8 x 14" with lengths to 10 feet. The wood is hard and heavy and is capable of a fine, high polish. Excellent for turnery and precious woodworks such as musical instruments, boxes, jewelry, etc.
This barrel contains the mill ends and cut offs from producing the other products that are on our website. The pieces in this barrel range from thin off cuts to larger chunks with various defects. There is a lot of usable material for inlays, jewelry, segmented turning, minitures, beads, banding, etc.
Net weight is 220 lbs.
Shipping this will probably cost at least a couple hundred bucks and likely more depending on distance from Portland. Give us a call for a more in depth quote.
