Black, finely streaked with bands of yellow to reddish brown. Very hard and heavy, with a beautiful surface when finished. Very well suited for fancy work of the highest order giving consistently impressive results.

Macassar ebony is cut on an annual quota set by the Indonesian government. Demand is consistently high and it is therefore a very difficult wood to source.
