Australian Hardwoods are beautiful in grain and texture and rich in colour
from Western Australia Jarrah, Karri & Marri all turn beautifully and make single wood pens are highly prized at artisan markets
from South Australia locally we have Red Gum and River Red Gum both turn into interesting pens
The other states all have interesting timbers varying with the climate and soil
I must get a series of photos to post showing some Aussie timbers in 1 timber pens
