Wood of the Week

Cocobolo

Cocobolo offers such distinct patterns that each piece seems to have a life of its own.

Cocobolo wood is a highly-prized amongst woodworkers. As you can see from the picture above, cocobolo is also extremely attractive. The combination of auburn and hard brown to black streaks create such striking pieces. You can find cocobolo pens for well over $100.

When you buy Cocobolo from Advantage, you won’t have to worry about quality or the source of the lumber. The cocobolo that you buy has been hand-picked by the owner of ATL, Rob Pelc. He personally visited Mexico to ensure that each board foot of this exotic hardwood was properly harvested and cultivated.

A cocobolo blank and turning square from Advantage is very affordable. Given the high return you can get either in selling designer bowls, pens, or pool cues, it makes sense to contact us for all your cocobolo needs.
