Selective cutting is designated by forestry officials and woods are removed by permit only Trees are measured to calculate the highest yield per cut and to not waste these valuable tropical woods Careful harvesting is practiced to not damage surrounding areas,
local young growth of trees
and to allow successful replanting of seedlings
Choice logs are gathered and prepared to be sent to our sawmill
Wood is again cut carefully to ensure the maximum yield, and quality milling is accomplished through learned skills and old but efficient equipment.
Woods is then selected, and prepared for the trip up to our warehouse in California
We have several slabs in stock in various different dimensions. Give us a call to see what we have. This is a great looking wood from Mexico that makes a great, more affordable alternative to Hawaiian Koa.
John Fry is furniture builder in North Los Angeles. He built this commissioned piece with wood that he purchased from us. It is an Asian Striped Ebony and Wenge "drum" table that was made with all bent lamination construction. He resawed the striped Asian ebony into 1/16" veneers and vac press laminated them on a form. Always great to see our woods once the projects are finished
