DESCRIPTION
Wenge is a wood of bold character, perfect for those who embrace a challenge! Its exquisite beauty is unmatched, showcasing a unique medium brown heartwood interwoven with striking black streaks. The grain is straight and wonderfully coarse, offering a stunning alternative to dark woods like Ebony.
Originating from Central Africa, this robust and resilient wood demands respect, as it tests the skills of even the most seasoned craftsmen. Its varying densities make sanding a formidable task, and its large pores call for careful filling to achieve a flawless finish. Yet, the results are spectacular — ideal for crafting remarkable furniture, intricate turnings, and resonant musical instruments. Beware its sharp slivers; wearing gloves is essential to avoid them.
Embrace the adventure of working with Wenge, and let its beauty inspire your creativity!
