Peroba Rosa

Peroba rosa (aspidosperma peroba) is a wood of variable colors, from tannish to as orange as the photo, which can remind one of the skin of a ripe peach. It originates from Southern Brazil or Paraguay. The grain is fine and the wood is extremely stable, making this an excellent turning wood. Reportedly, it has good sound qualities for duck calls and chanters (bagpipes), and possibly other musical uses. All of our pieces of peroba rosa are kiln-dried. Turns very well.

🪵 Good to know

Great to work with, fairly dense and fine grained, beautiful and not too expensive!

Craft Blanks

Peroba Rosa 25-37

Peroba rosa, especially in dried pieces is rarely seen for sale. It is one of my favorite woods, ultra fine grain, finishes like a dream, works great on the lathe, takes detail, kind of like a hidden treasure most people in the wood world have passed over.

Peroba Rosa A-N

This Peroba Rosa is doubly special: It is from the thick door jambs of a house built in Brazil in the 1860's. It is also what we call "Flamed" for the wild patterns here. The door jambs were badly cracked with nails and screws in them. We removed all the metal and then cut around all the cracks to produce these.
