African Rosewood – A Namibian beauty 🤩🇳🇦

We searched high and low and the wait felt endless, but we have finally found some!

We have new stock in 26mm, 38mm and 50mm thickness. There are some beautiful wide boards in there. Needs a few weeks of kiln-drying but once dry this stock will not last long.
