Hi Kerrie...

Can you send me a list of sizes and prices? I'm after plain and highly figured myrtle in the red end of the colour scale. (about 3 sq m of each)

thanks

Greg

Hi Greg,
I don't have much Tas myrtle- only some cluster and flame ($30 sq m), but both are more orange than red. Some burl @ $68sq m. Various sizes of burl. The other is about 20cm x 2m.
Brittons might be your best bet for a wider variety.
Didn't think that marquetry required such an amount- are you doing a wall mural!
cheers,
kerrie
