Western Myall Desert-Hardened Australian Native Western Myall is a dense and richly coloured Australian hardwood, valued for its deep chocolate to caramel tones and highly varied grain. Native to the inland deserts, it is naturally slow-growing and produces timber of remarkable hardness and stability. Blanks can range from boldly figured with rippling chatoyance to clean and straight-grained pieces with a refined uniformity. Many show both in one blank, creating striking contrast between dark heartwood and lighter sap streaks. Western Myall turns cleanly with sharp tools and polishes to a warm satin or glossy finish, rewarding careful makers with pens full of depth and movement. Features Rich chocolate to caramel heartwood, often with pale sap accents Grain varies from dramatic ripple to clean straight lines Finishes to a smooth satin or gloss sheen Dense, stable hardwood ideal for crisp detailing Native desert species, sustainably sourced Specifications Approx. dimensions: 20mm x 20mm x 130mm Species: Western Myall ( Acacia papyrocarpa ) Supplied dry and ready to turn Note: Grain expression may be figured, straight, or a mix of both.
