Cocobolo WoodCocobolo wood from Central America and Mexico is an exquisite variety of lumber that is has an attractive grain and incredible mix of colors including reds, oranges, yellows, black and purple. These remarkable colors blend together in the heartwood to create woodwork that is breathtaking and elegant. Cocobolo wood is also extremely durable, hard and stable, making it perfect for turnery, musical instruments, flooring and utensil handles.
At Internet Lumber, they sell cocobolo wood as lumber, turning squares, vase/bowl turning blanks and pen blanks. Once you receive the wood and start working with it, you will find that it has a gorgeous, uniform texture and a very lustrous appearance. And, because of its high oil content, it is resistant to water, making it durable enough to be used outside.
