About Ancient Kauri Mega Curl: Ancient Kauri is a prehistoric wood, carbon-dated to over 45,000 years old, and recovered from ancient buried forests in the far north of New Zealand. It is the oldest workable wood on Earth.

What sets this piece apart is its Mega Curl grain – a spectacular 3D ripple effect caused by natural compression in the tree over millennia. This rare phenomenon gives the timber a shimmering, iridescent quality, especially under finish, making it one of the most visually stunning woods available.

Applications: * Knife handle blanks * Pen turning (100+ pen blanks) * High-end craft and jewelry box inlays * Sculptural artwork or museum-grade wood collection

This is a premium, investment-grade piece of New Zealand’s natural heritage. Ideal for serious collectors, artists, or craftsmen seeking rare timber with character and story.
