Notable for its striking, high-contrast appearance, Zebrawood is an exotic hardwood from West Africa that delivers an unmistakable look. The light straw-colored heartwood is defined by dark brown to near-black streaks that mimic a zebra’s coat, making it a favorite for craftsmen who want their bow handles to stand out with a bold, graphic flair.
Product Features
Iconic Appearance: The signature “zebra stripes” range from narrow, uniform lines to wild, wavy patterns, providing a high-impact aesthetic that looks incredible under a clear finish.
Heavy and Durable: This is a dense, stiff hardwood (Janka hardness of approx. 1,575 lbf), offering the structural integrity and weight needed for high-quality bow risers and handles.
Unique Character: Every blank is one-of-a-kind. Depending on how the wood was sawn, you may receive a piece with tight, parallel grain or an erratic, marbled figure.
Excellent Performance: Beyond its beauty, Zebrawood is known for its excellent strength-to-weight ratio and is widely used in professional-grade archery equipment and custom furniture.
Dimensions: Solid wood blank with approximate dimensions of 2″ x 2″ x 18″. Slight variations in exact size are normal for these rough-cut blanks.
Origin: Sourced from the tropical forests of West Africa.
