We are pleased to be offering rare and high quality CITES-permitted Brazilian Rosewood fingerboards to the United States once again!

We are one of the select few companies with the capability to bring legally salvaged CITES Brazilian Rosewood from Brazil to the United States.

We have located a rare inventory of Brazilian Rosewood lumber in Europe which is neither pre-sold nor back-ordered to our current customers. Therefore, we can offer it to new customers who, until now, have been unable to purchase Brazilian Rosewood.

After six months of legal processing, we have acquired the necessary CITES export permit and certification for this inventory and we are ready to ship to the United States.

This high quality vintage Brazilian Rosewood was purchased before the
CITES ban of Brazilian Rosewood trade and held by a private luthier for his own stock. He has since retired from active lutherie and would like to make this high quality wood available to the public.

We have worked in strict compliance with CITES European, International and U.S. regulations, and have undergone inspection to ensure that this wood will comply with all legal regulations so that it can be legally sold and traded in the United States.
Please contact us if you are interested in this rare opportunity to purchase high quality, legally permitted and certified genuine Brazilian Rosewood fingerboards. If you have never purchased from us before, please be aware that our Brazilian Rosewood supplies sell out quickly, and it can take up to several months to obtain the certification for subsequent shipments.
