Lacewood Turning Blank – Stunning Figure, Smooth Workability & Unique Exotic Character
Add unmistakable visual flair to your next project with Lacewood, a highly decorative exotic hardwood known for its striking medullary ray “lace” figure. With its shimmering flecked pattern and warm, reddish-tan tones, Lacewood is a favorite among woodturners, pen makers, carvers, and fine woodworking artists looking to create pieces that truly stand out.
Distinctive Lace Pattern & Warm Color
Lacewood’s signature appearance comes from its large medullary rays, which create a bold, eye-catching “leopard-spot” or “lace” grain figure across its surface. Colors range from pale pinkish-beige to warm reddish-brown, often with beautiful contrasting flecks that intensify under a clear finish.
Every piece of Lacewood is naturally unique, offering dramatic texture and depth.
Excellent Workability for Turning & Carving
Lacewood machines, turns, and sands well, especially with sharp tools and light passes. It produces smooth surfaces and takes finishes exceptionally well, resulting in a glowing, patterned surface.
Great for projects such as:
Pen blanks & bottle stoppers
Bowls & vessels
Knife scales & tool handles
Jewelry, ornaments & decorative items
Inlay, accent work & small furniture components
Hybrid resin pieces
Lightweight, Stable & Visually Striking
Lacewood is moderately light yet dimensionally stable, making it easy to work while still holding detail. Its dramatic appearance makes even simple shapes look artistic and refined.
