Newtonia Bowl Blanks

Newtonia is a light to medium brown hardwood, often with subtle reddish or golden undertones and an attractive, even grain. It has a natural, understated appearance that works well for both decorative and functional turning projects. It turns nicely on the lathe with sharp tools, producing clean cuts and a smooth surface — a reliable, good all-round timber that sands easily and takes oil and wax finishes well.
