Pernambuco i to S
This is genuine Pernambuco. Pernambuco was last imported around the year 2000. There is another orange wood, Chakte Viga (we sell this too) which is somewhat similar to Pernambuco. Some vendors call Chakte Viga by the name Pernambuco. The ones we are selling here are the original ones called Pernambuco, which is also known as Brazilwood. (That is where Brazil got its name by the way). Used by makers of violin bows for centuries, this wood has become rare and heavily protected in the wild. It is not allowed to be exported from Brazil for about 24 years or so.

Pink Ivory 400 to 405
Pink ivory, dried, with fantastic color. Rare to find some of these colors in pieces that are actually dried and good quality. Note that piece 400 might have a tiny check or two somewhere, it was a crotch piece so they can be hidden inside especially. However quality appears very good on outside inspection. Others seem to be defect free based on my inspection.
