As is with my other cherry burl pens:
Extraordinarily time consuming, not to just craft with expertise & precision, but to log and mill entirely myself, cherry burl is a domestic wood that is usually considered to be in the same class as mahogany for usage in the United States (source: Bell Forest Products). It is a wood for fine furniture & luxury items. The stiff & strong wood has complex interwoven grain with incredible blue streaks to birdseye-like speckles. Black cherry is also prized for being “photoreactive” —in other words—it darkens with exposure to light. This the reason cherry is known for its dark reddish hue with age.

This pen is finished with my proprietary friction polish which is primarily composed of dewaxed shellac. After, it was polished with Bowling Alley paste wax for a feel and shine second to none.

Cocobolo (Dalbergia retusa) is a tropical hardwood tree that is native to Central America, mainly found in parts of Mexico, Guatemala, Belize, and Nicaragua. It belongs to the genus Dalbergia, which also includes other valuable and highly sought-after woods like Brazilian Rosewood and African Blackwood.

Cocobolo wood is known for its distinctive coloration and grain pattern. It ranges in color from a reddish-brown to a deep burgundy, often with a pronounced figure that includes swirls and stripes. The wood is extremely dense and hard, with a specific gravity of around 1.0, making it highly resistant to rot and insect damage.

Due to its striking appearance and excellent durability, cocobolo wood is often used in high-end woodworking projects such as fine furniture, cabinetry, and decorative veneers. It is also a popular choice for making musical instruments, particularly acoustic and electric guitars, because of its excellent acoustic properties.

However, cocobolo wood is becoming increasingly rare and expensive due to over-harvesting and deforestation. It is a protected species under international law, and its use is highly regulated. As a result, sustainable alternatives such as Indian Rosewood and Sapele are often used in place of cocobolo for woodworking, musical instrument construction and high-end luxury turnings. Due to the fact this is a genuine rosewood, legislation prohibits shipment outside the continental United States due to CITES II legislation.

Brazilian tulipwood, scientifically known as Dalbergia decipularis & Dalbergia frutescens, is a rare and highly sought-after hardwood species native to Brazil. It is also referred to as Brazilian rosewood or jacaranda-da-bahia. Despite the name, it is not related to tulipwood derived from the tulip tree (Liriodendron spp.).

Appearance-wise, Brazilian tulipwood features a stunning combination of colors and patterns. The heartwood of the tree displays various shades of pink, purple, and red, often with streaks of yellow or orange. The coloration can be highly variable, ranging from pale pink to a deep reddish hue. The sapwood, in contrast, is typically a pale yellow color and serves as a nice contrast to the darker heartwood.

The grain pattern of Brazilian tulipwood is usually straight, but it can also exhibit interlocking or wavy patterns, adding to its visual appeal. The wood has a fine to medium texture with a natural luster, giving it a smooth and polished appearance. It is known for its excellent natural sheen and takes finishes exceptionally well, making it a favorite among woodworkers and artisans.

In addition to its captivating aesthetics, Brazilian tulipwood is prized for its durability and strength. It possesses excellent dimensional stability, which means it is less prone to warping, shrinking, or expanding due to changes in humidity or temperature. The wood is known for its hardness and density, making it suitable for various applications that require a robust and long-lasting material.

Brazilian tulipwood has been traditionally used in high-end cabinetry, furniture making, veneers, musical instruments (such as guitars and ukuleles), turned objects, and other specialty items. Its scarcity and unique beauty have made it a favorite among collectors and enthusiasts.

However, it is essential to note that due to overexploitation and unsustainable harvesting practices in the past, Brazilian tulipwood is now considered endangered and listed under CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora) Appendix II. This listing prohibits the international trade of Brazilian tulipwood without proper permits to ensure its conservation and protection.

One of the most breathtaking, colorful woods, in a pen that is of the same caliper.

Brazilian Tulipwood, scientifically known as Dalbergia decipularis, is a striking & sought-after exotic hardwood that originates from the rainforests of Brazil, particularly in regions such as the Amazon basin & other parts of South America. It is a member of the Dalbergia genus, which is renowned for producing some of the world’s most beautiful & valuable woods used in high-end furniture, musical instruments, fine crafts & luxury writing instruments.

One of the most captivating features of Brazilian Tulipwood is its vibrant and rich color palette. The heartwood of the tree ranges from golden yellows to deep reddish-browns, often with darker streaks or stripes that resemble the petals of tulip flowers, hence its name. This unique color variation gives the wood an intricate and visually stunning appearance, making it highly prized among woodworkers and artisans.
