Chakte Viga Collection – Exotic Mexican Hardwood Pen & Turning Blanks

The Chakte Viga Collection features one of Mexico’s most exquisite hardwoods, prized for its rich reddish-brown hues, subtle purple undertones, and bold dark streaking. Known in the trade as Chakte Viga or Mexican Rosewood, this hardwood offers artisans and woodturners a rare, luxurious material for premium pens, knife handles, bottle stoppers, and decorative turnings.

Botanically sourced from Dalbergia stevensonii, Chakte Viga is dense, stable, and easy to finish, turning smoothly with sharp tools while retaining crisp detail. Each blank in the collection showcases unique figure and color variation, ensuring every project is truly one-of-a-kind.

This collection is ideal for heirloom-quality turnings, small boxes, finials, and high-end custom pens, appealing to makers who value both performance and stunning visual impact. With Chakte Viga, your creations carry the richness of exotic Mexican hardwood with lasting beauty and character.
