{"product_id":"sapele-bowl-blank-13x3","title":"Sapele Bowl Blank 13x3","description":"\u003cp\u003eSapele is a popular African hardwood prized for its rich reddish-brown colour and the striking interlocked grain that produces a distinctive ribbon or rope figure, particularly on quartersawn surfaces. A close relative of mahogany, it shares that same warmth and elegance but with added visual drama. It turns very well on the lathe — light, controlled cuts bring out the best of its figure, and oil finishes deepen its natural colour and lustre to beautiful effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWood Characteristics\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpecies: Sapele (\u003cem\u003eEntandrophragma cylindricum\u003c\/em\u003e)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: West \/ Central Africa\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColour: Rich reddish-brown with a warm golden sheen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrain: Interlocked, often producing striking ribbon or rope figure — light cuts recommended\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorking properties: Turns very well, sands smoothly, takes oil and wax finishes beautifully\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSupplied\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCut round for easy mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEdges waxed to minimise moisture loss and reduce checking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSizes are approximate and shown in inches (diameter × thickness) \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Wood Room","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58371554148697,"sku":null,"price":38.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1044\/1110\/3577\/files\/IMG-4262.heic?v=1782119196","url":"https:\/\/woodroom.co.uk\/products\/sapele-bowl-blank-13x3","provider":"The Wood Room","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
