Bocote exotic hardwood veneers crafted at the Bending Branch wood shop. This highly sought-after Central American timber features a striking, yellowish-brown body contrasted by dramatic, dark brown to black grain lines. Known for its distinct ‘bird’s eye’ swirls and intricate, landscape-like figures, bocote brings an unmistakable, high-end look to custom bow building. This set is sequence-matched, meaning they are consecutive cuts that serve as symmetrically opposites—perfect for achieving a uniform, professional, and beautifully book-matched look on your bow limbs. Mechanically, bocote is dense, naturally oily, and highly resilient, offering excellent stability and responsiveness under tension. Please note that you will not receive the exact veneers in the photo, but you will receive sequence matched cuts, ensuring consistent color, density, and grain pattern.

Wood changes color over time, especially as it is exposed to light, the sun or extreme temperatures.
