The History behind the wood
 

These creations are made of an exotic wood called BALATA also
 referred to as
Massaranduba, this wood comes from very large trees
    spanning up to 48"wide & 150' tall.  It comes from
an Island called Dominica located by the West Indies.
This island was the island that Pirates of the Caribbean was filmed on.
My brother and his family live on this Island.
 This wood has a deep reddish tint to it
giving it a naturally beautiful color.
 

Supply is limited!
