Collection: Amboyna Burl

Amboyna Burl, Pterocarpus indicus, is a wood native to Southeast Asia.

The tree, a cousin of African Padouk, often produces large burls. They are harvested in the forest without felling the tree.

The burl ranges from yellow to red through orange, with or without white sapwood.

This wood has been used for centuries as veneer and in marquetry.

A luxury wood reserved for the noblest uses.
