African Wild Olivewood 27
This piece was slow dried over 10 years to get it dry all the way through. For that reason alone, it is rare to even find a piece like this for sale, as most vendors have stopped taking time to dry thick pieces. The figure makes it even more rare because figure is outstanding in this piece as you can see. This piece has a weight/density almost exactly the same as lignum vitae which is amazing.
Piece 27
3.75 x 3.75 x 10.25 inches
Sandalwood (Hawaiian) 1 - 16
A precious wood of great rarity when mature like these. Santalum elipticum is a treasure similar to the highest grades of Mysore Sandalwood from India. This particular group is even more special because they have more oil (and aroma) than even normal good sandalwood. This is why the color is darker in this group, rather than the usual yellowish color. A premium incense, carving and turning wood, as well as an oustanding wood for very special handles. We have very little left, once it is gone, we have no way to get more.
