Thuya Burl Pen Blanks

Thuya Burl pen blanks are steeped in centuries of history and highly prized by ancient Greeks and Romans. Originating from the Atlas Mountains of Algeria and Morocco, these rare blanks carry the legacy of a highly coveted wood that was once fiercely competed for.

The rich color palette, ranging from golden brown to nearly black, offers an exceptional canvas for creative expression with its mesmerizing patterns and perfectly round "eyes." Moderately firm and dense with high oil content, Thuya Burl blanks provide exceptional turning characteristics, allowing for intricate and delicate designs to be crafted with precision. Each blank offers a unique experience, transforming your pen into a piece of art with deep historical significance.
