Affordable fixed price Worldwide Store to door Shipping offered by Seller. Snakewood origin: Coastal Northern South America. Snakewood is the one of the most expensive and quite rare woods in the world. It only grows along the coastal area in Northern South America. The tree is very small and has a high waste factor when cutting. It is dark reddish brown with darker brown to black patches, distinguished by a unique snake skin grain pattern. It is typically priced according to the level of figure with very highly figured pieces costing more. Figure is often only visible on one or two sides of a piece. Snakewood is very heavy and dense and is very brittle. It does turn very well and finishes with a high sheen. *TIP: When deciding to purchase a Walking Cane on-line, always check the dimensions especially its length and even the width of the handle when possible. Many antique ones offered nowadays can vary a lot in length, remember some of these were custom-made for clients in the past. .
