PAU ROSA INFO

Bobgunnia madagascariensis - formerly classified as Swartzia madagascariensis

This species is obviously not a true rosewood but it looks similar to various well known and loved rosewood / Dalbergia species, plus it is a similar density, shares many working characteristics and, like true rosewoods, finishes beautifully.

WOOD SOURCING

This wood was sourced from Sound and Fair, an ethical timber initiative involving harvesting logs on fair trade terms from community managed forests in Lindi Region, Tanzania. The communities keep 100% of the logs sale revenue and it is used for a range of community development programmes including clean water, health care, education and community enterprise.
