KD Figured Eucalyptus
These pieces have been fumed, which changes the colors from light pinkish tan to a mixture of yellows, dark browns
and black. Fuming is the process by which the lumber is exposed to gasified ammonia, which causes a reaction with
tannins in the wood to alter the color throughout. Recommended for experienced turners. Wood is typically a mixture
of golden yellow, dark brown, and black. This species is very dense, but cuts well. Sands to a very high lustre, and
finishes easily.
