Black and White Ebony – Rare Striped Exotic Hardwood with Dramatic Contrast & Luxury Appeal
Black and White Ebony (often called Pale Moon Ebony) is one of the world’s most visually striking hardwoods, known for its dramatic contrast, high density, and smooth, glassy finish. Featuring bold black streaks flowing across creamy white or pale yellow heartwood, this species delivers a truly exotic, marble-like appearance prized by fine woodworkers and collectors.

Unmatched Natural Contrast – Sharp black ink-like streaks against bright, pale backgrounds create museum-grade visual impact.
High Density & Exceptional Hardness – Allows for crisp detail, durability, and a polished, luxurious finish.
Smooth, Fine Texture – Ideal for high-end turning, carving, and precision machining.
Rare & Highly Sought After – Limited availability makes it a premium choice for special projects.
Finishes Like Stone – Sands and buffs to a glassy, artistic sheen.
