The tree is more than a first seed, then a stem, then a living trunk and then timber.
The tree is a slow, enduring force straining to win the sky.
The colour and luminescence of Koa wood, along with its exceptional tonal qualities, make it a premier choice for luthiers around the world.
I specialise in selling the very best quality Koa sets in all grades however this section is dedicated to the very rarest of all sets that pass into my hands.
These sets are from what are considered “once in a lifetime” trees.
They are extraordinarily rare in terms of figure intensity, form and colour, set to be crafted into heirloom quality instruments.
These sets, by default, are therefore exceptionally limited in numbers so please email me if you would like to be notified when sets of this grade become available.
Please enjoy my pictures - I feel very privileged to photograph and handle wood this beautiful and I hope I’ve done it justice.
