African Roswood Spindle Blanks
Product code:
AFROSSB_MST
Guibourtia coleosperma Air dried.
Not a true Rosewood (Dalbegia) but a member of the Bubinga family (but not CITES Listed) and just maybe, the most beautitiful timber we have.
The colour varies from reddish brown to pink with lighter streaks, some yellow to pale straw colour. Some blanks are reminiscent of Brazilian Tulip.
It turns just like Bubinga, slightly hard but crisp and takes abrasives well.
I have only tried this with sanding sealer and wax and it shines like a fresh conker.
My new favourite, being alergic to true Dalbergias as I am.
