Ebony for the future!
Ebony has been one of the most important woods in our range since the beginning of our precious wood trade, and we always strive to have a large quantity of this expensive wood in stock. In addition to a very large inventory of finished cuts in fixed sizes for instrument makers, woodturners, woodwind instrument makers, billiard cue makers, for fingerboards, piano keys, knife handles, fine writing instruments, and art objects such as sculptures, chess pieces, and fine walking sticks, we also always have a large quantity of sawn timber in stock so that we can continuously produce and deliver custom-sized cuts. Our range of old, well-seasoned ebony scantlings in particularly large dimensions, such as 400 x 100 x 100 mm, which are available for immediate delivery, is probably unique worldwide.
To this end, we constantly store several tons of this black gold here. However, much of this freshly purchased wood must be carefully stacked on slats in our specially air-conditioned storage rooms for several years so that air can reach the wood from all sides and it can dry slowly and continuously under constant monitoring. This ensures that our customers always receive only dry ebony of the highest quality.
We have just stored another two tons of fresh ebony, which now has to be carefully monitored as it dries so that, in the best case scenario, it will be dry enough in two or three years to be worked with without the risk of cracking. As you can see, this is an investment in the future that, in addition to patience and sufficient capital, also represents a reassuring stability in value.
