Mystery Wood Sierra Elegant Beauty

[igran7]

This is a Sierra Elegant Beauty from Berea wrapped with an unknown mystery wood I received from jon piper (Goodturns) Thanks Jon. If you see this maybe you can enlighten me as to what it is. CA/BLO finish.

Your Pen

Sure looks like Amboyna Burl to me. It sure is interesting with those two difficult knot like formations, you have overcome several touchy patches. Neat colour and shape.

Can't help with the wood but it is a beautiful pen.

Beautiful!

That looks great! It looks a lot like afzelia burl to me but of course, could be anything. If not afzelia burl, my next guess would be amboyna burl.

Amboyna it is. One of a batch cut from a gorgeous board. Glad you were able to do something nice with it!

 

[Ligget]

My vote is with Amboyna
