Working and finishing Indian Rosewood
A true Dalbergia rosewood; its dust is a well-documented sensitizer and irritant, so good dust collection and a respirator are recommended. Works well with sharp tools despite its density and interlocked grain.
Naturally oily surface can resist glue and finish adhesion, so wipe with solvent before gluing or finishing; oil finishes bring out its rich colour and are the traditional choice.
Sold as is. Grain, colour and figure vary from piece to piece. Confirm the dimensions your build needs before you buy.
