I have a two amboyna burl blocks, two curly maple blocks and two koa blocks up for sale.
First the amboyna. Not stabilized. I don't use amboyna stabilized anymore, I've had issues with cracking as well as weird powdery mold/fungus type stuff growing on it. As it is, you can choose to send the blocks in for stabilizing if you want, or for you guys doing the home brewed stuff, you can be into these premium amboyna burl blocks stabilized for about $45.
Price is $40 per block shipped to the US. Paypal preferred but will take check or money order. International sales are fine but buyer will pay actual shipping charges.
Specify A. or B. Blocks are big and solid, defect free (tiny little voids in eyes, typical for burl, not defects). Each block is 2 1/2" x 4 3/4" x 1 1/16".

Next two curly maple blocks. BOTH SOLD.

Lastly, two stabilized Koa blocks. Stabilizing was done by K&G. These aren't the exhibition grade, tight curl blocks but they have nice figure and GREAT colors. These have very nice depth and luster to the figure. They measure 1 15/16" x 5" x 7/8".
BOTH blocks for $50 shipped to the US. International buyers pay actual shipping.
