Griffin Exotic Wood

Figured woods (various types)

This is the exciting page for various figured woods that just don't fit somewhere else.  We will have an ever changing inventory, and most are here because they are available only occasionally or just once.  Usually there are not many pieces available, so if you like what you see be sure to buy what you want soon as they may go quickly.  Each type of wood has its own picture and heading below.

Jarrah Burl from Australia

Jarrah Burl is one of the most beautiful and distinctive burls in the world, for two reasons. First, the burl has a great red color, and secondly, the burl formations themselves are unusual.  They usually have tiny splits in the burl area which makes a really interesting texture on your piece---sometimes it almost looks like latticework.  These pieces are the creme of the crop and have already been trimmed round, removing the unfigured areas (which can easily amount to 50% of the piece when you buy raw burls).  They are also almost or completely air dried making them very stable for immediate use.   It is now very hard to get this burl in this high quality, and supplies of it are very limited.

Coffee burl
coffea arabica

Our coffee burl is cut from real coffee plantations near Bali, Indonesia.  Has a finer grain and very nice figure.  This burl is usually sold as whole odd shaped pieces.  We found these can be hard to work with for woodturners so we cut away the waste (about 80%) to make these nice blocks.  Nice turning wood.  These have been air dried in the rough burls for over 18 months before being cut round.  Limited supply.  Priced based on final weight and quality.  May have small pith check(s) and some natural indents the picture does not show.

Photos have been taken to show figure as well as most major variations in appearance such as natural indents.  Prices are based on quality and size.
