Robinia pseudoacacia

Also known as locust tree, robinia wood was imported into Europe in the 17th century. Very hard and tough, it is highly resistant to wood rot and insects, yet also bendable. The tannin-rich wood can be smoked dark (chemical reaction with ammonia fumes) and is easy to polish thanks to its high density. This makes it especially interesting for woodturning work. Outdoors, robinia can be used without additional chemical protection. Density 770 kg/m³

Natural product, the product may differ from the picture shown.

Note: The dimensions description for each piece follows a convention of LENGTH x WIDTH x THICKNESS with the SIDE GRAIN down the length - e.g. a piece 400 x 180 x 80mm is 400mm long, has SIDE GRAIN on all 4 faces and the two END GRAIN faces in this example would be by deduction 180 x 80mm.
