Pen Blanks
Teak Curly pen blanks
High figured Old Growth Teak from Burma. These pen blanks come from a board that was imported from Burma over 40 years ago. It was kept wrapped up in a stack in a boatyard in Massachusetts for about 30 years, then we bought it 10 years ago. These look best when highly polished. Most are GG+ grade. I'd suggest using sanding sealer before final sanding, but I did not actually do that for the pictures you see here.

Pyinma 17to24
This rare wood from Laos hasn't been imported since about 2018 when all imports were stopped for all wood leaving Laos. As a consequence, it is basically gone from the market for the most part. We have a small amount left and hope you enjoy these while we can still offer them. Dried pieces, figure is hard to show but we've done our best here . .

Gmelia Burl
Some unusual burls for one time sale. NOTES: The American elm burl has been soaked in superglue which was then sanded off multiple times. You likely will have to glue it more on the inside but we really worked all the glue in we could from the outside. These were so extraordinary for elm I decided to put a couple hours+ additional work into them just to make them nice. We have no more elm like these, nor have I seen any for sale. The Gmelia burl is the last piece we have in the shop, and it is a very nice solid and pretty piece.
