Tamarind – Premium Exotic Hardwood Turning Blank
Tamarind (Tamarindus indica) is a striking tropical hardwood prized for its dramatic contrast, rich reddish-brown heartwood, and bold dark streaking. Known for its natural beauty and impressive density, Tamarind offers eye-catching figure and excellent durability, making it a favorite among turners and fine woodworkers.
This premium Tamarind turning blank features a tight, interlocked grain that produces flowing patterns when shaped on the lathe. With sharp tools and controlled cuts, Tamarind turns cleanly, holds crisp detail, and sands to a smooth surface. When finished, it reveals exceptional depth and contrast, often resembling exotic rosewoods with its layered color tones.
Tamarind is well suited for pens, knife scales, bottle stoppers, bowls, small boxes, decorative turnings, and fine woodworking accents. Its strength and stability make it ideal for heirloom-quality projects where visual impact and longevity matter.
Add bold tropical beauty and reliable performance to your next project with hand-selected Tamarind wood blanks, chosen for rich color, dramatic figure, and premium turning quality.
