Simulated Natural Material Rods

Made from polyester with a uniformly smooth texture, these turning blanks closely mimic the appearance of these natural materials:

• Ivory: the color and luster of natural ivory
• Aged Ivory: similar to ivory but with a butter-yellow hue
• Ebony: jet black to resemble African ebony
• Bone: white, similar to ivory but paler and less lustrous
• Horn: variegated swirls of color ranging from pale yellow to brown and gray
• Coral: variegated swirls of white, pink, and light and dark red
• Cobalt: intense blue hue of the mineral-based pigment
• Jade: swirls of color ranging from light green to brown
• Malachite: dark green with black striations
• Lapis Lazuli: deep, slightly mottled blue

They can be cut, turned and drilled using regular woodworking tools, bond well with common adhesives and are readily polished to a high gloss with fine abrasives.

Two sizes are available: a 20mm diameter by 150mm (3/4" × 6") for pen turning and 50mm × 150mm (2" × 6") for larger projects.
