Pink Ivory – Woodturning Blank
Part Seasoned
Description:
Pink Ivory is one of the world’s most prized and distinctive hardwoods, renowned for its vibrant natural pink colouring and exceptional density. Often regarded as one of Africa’s most luxurious timbers, Pink Ivory is highly sought after by woodturners and craftsmen for its rarity, beauty, and ability to produce stunning finished pieces. This part-seasoned stock is ideal for turners who prefer to complete the drying process or rough turn projects before final seasoning.
Features:
- Species: Pink Ivory (Berchemia zeyheri)
- Appearance: Vibrant pink to deep rosy-red tones with a fine, uniform grain
- Texture: Fine and smooth with a natural lustre
- Condition: Part seasoned
- Workability: Dense and hard; turns exceptionally well and polishes to a superb finish
Applications:
Ideal for bowls, pens, bottle stoppers, tool handles, decorative turnings, jewellery boxes, and other premium woodturning projects.
Note:
As a natural timber, variations in colour, grain, and figure are to be expected. Due to the density of Pink Ivory and its part-seasoned condition, small surface checks, end splits, or minor cracks may occasionally be present. These are typical characteristics of the wood and can often be removed during preparation and turning. Photographs are representative of typical appearance.
