Pink Ivory (Berchemia zeyheri) is a rare and exotic hardwood native to Southern Africa, particularly found in Zimbabwe, Mozambique, and South Africa. It is cherished for its vibrant, pink to reddish-pink heartwood, which can sometimes darken to a deeper, more muted red over time. The grain is typically straight, though it can also exhibit attractive wavy or interlocked patterns. The wood’s fine, uniform texture contributes to its smooth, lustrous finish.

Known for its good workability, Pink Ivory is relatively easy to machine, making it a favored choice for fine furniture, luxury cabinetry, and decorative inlays. Its excellent strength properties also make it ideal for specialized applications such as turned objects, knife handles, and small decorative items. The wood polishes to a smooth, elegant finish, highlighting its rich color and intricate grain patterns.

Pink Ivory is dense, providing good dimensional stability and impact resistance. Its natural durability ensures it remains a reliable material for various uses, providing longevity and performance.

As one of the most sought-after hardwoods in the market, Pink Ivory remains a staple in fine woodworking. Responsible forestry practices help maintain its availability for future generations. Its unique beauty, reliability, and versatile qualities make it a beloved choice among artisans and manufacturers alike. Whether for crafting exquisite furniture or creating unique decorative pieces, Pink Ivory continues to be a highly valued and trusted material.
