Kosso Wood Turning Blank – Premium African Rosewood for High-End Craft Projects
Bring bold color and natural elegance to your next project with Kosso wood (Pterocarpus erinaceus), a highly sought-after African hardwood known for its rich reddish-brown tones, striking dark streaks, and exceptional durability. Whether you’re a woodturner, knife maker, carver, or resin artist, Kosso offers the perfect blend of strength, beauty, and smooth workability.
Rich Exotic Color & Eye-Catching Grain
Kosso features a beautiful spectrum of color—from warm golden-brown to deep red—often accented with dramatic dark veining that gives every piece a unique, high-end look. Its grain can be straight or lightly interlocked, creating natural chatoyance and depth when polished.
Once finished, Kosso reveals a luxurious shine that resembles true rosewood.
