Exotic wood suppliers

We are trying to source a supplier of the following specific types of wood:
- Lignum Vitae (“wood of life”) also called Iron Mahogany or Iron Wood;

- Walnut (preferably French);

- Rosewood (preferably Brazilian);

- Pearwood also called Pear Tree (preferably from France or Germany); and

- Ebony (preferably African Gaboon Ebony - also called Black Ebony, Clabar, Gabun or Lagos).

Could anyone advise where we might be able to get any of the above?

Thanks in advance…

John

there is a good chance Peter Mayo , at Specialty Wood Centre , will be able to help (02) 4959-3573 mob 0407 290 616

Endeavour Timbers in Brisbane definitely have some ebony and the last time I was there they also had walnut and Brazillian Rosewood. I don't know about the rest of them. They are a member here so send them a message. :)

Specialty Wood Centre have some at least. The other place to try is Trend Timbers - www.trendtimbers.com.au

Len Smith at The Woodsmith in Melb does mail order, and has some US walnut, several rosewoods and ebony. Call him - he's very helpful.

Roy Green at Get Woodworking in Williamstown Melb. has ebony and a bit of pearwood (natural edge bowl blank from memory). email: [email protected]

I was checking out their stock in the last few days (and came away richer but poorer if you know what I mean ;) )

Cheers,

Hopefully this will help those looking for a "real" exotic wood supplier. I have already order 4 different times from a company in Peru and have yet to be disappointed. The name of the company is Woodzon Company and the sales rep I worked with is named, Tom. He's the only Tom there, I believe. I have already purchased beautiful Tigerwood and Purpleheart from him. I currently have my 5th order on its way to me with a new wood (to me) called pona.
Best of luck all!:)
