Kiln Dried Wenge
Wenge (Millettia laurentii) is a bold African hardwood prized for its dramatic dark color and striking grain. The wood ranges from very dark brown to nearly black, often highlighted by lighter brown or tan streaks that create strong visual contrast.
Wenge turns best with sharp tools and controlled cuts, producing crisp detail and clean surfaces. Its coarse, open grain gives it a distinctive texture and allows it to finish to a deep, rich appearance when properly filled and polished. When properly dried, wenge offers excellent strength and stability.
Common uses include turning blanks, bowls, spindles, pens, tool handles, furniture accents, and decorative turnings.
