Amboyna Burl

Also considered the King of Burls, Amboyna burl is one of the most sough-after of all exotic woods. Availability of this species these days, however, is extremely rare and is very difficult to obtain. Most of what's available in the market today comes from old stockpiles from years ago when it was stil widely available from SE Asia. The figure of Amboyna is incredibly beautiful and produces quite a distinct pepper-like aroma. It is a medium-density wood, easy to stabilize or machine and takes on an amazing sheen. Most of our stock is milled for pen blanks, knife scales, gun grips or hybrid turning blanks.
