It is prized by instrument makers, furniture makers, and woodturners alike for its exceptional workability and beautiful, understated appearance. Genuine Swiss Pear is slow-grown and relatively rare, making each piece a premium find.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecies Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecies:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pyrus communis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Swiss Pear \/ European Pear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Europe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Warm pinkish-brown, even and consistent throughout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrain:\u003c\/strong\u003e Very fine and straight — exceptionally smooth to work and finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJanka Hardness:\u003c\/strong\u003e ~1,660 lbf (~7,380 N)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDensity:\u003c\/strong\u003e ~730 kg\/m³\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWorkability:\u003c\/strong\u003e Excellent — works superbly with hand and machine tools; takes fine detail and finishes to a silky surface.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThis Piece\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e SP11\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1070mm long x 200–230mm wide (single live edge) x 45mm thick\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Planed faces, single live edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e This piece has some cracks on the squared edge, which are characteristic of timber cut close to the pith — please review the photos carefully before purchasing.
