Burmese Teak Handle Scales

Teak has always been a prized material. The tree that teak comes from, Tectona grandis, is native to the tropics. Since around the 7th century, it has been used to outfit and adorn the residences of the wealthy and powerful [source: AmegaWood]. The wood's reputation made its way out of the region through the Dutch, who colonized Indonesia. They used the wood for shipbuilding; teak makes for an excellent ship wood due to its ability to ward off dry rot. Still today used in furniture and woodworking, teak is a wood that has been prized for a large part of our recorded history.

Size is about 10 x 40 x 150 mm per scale, this is a set of 2 scales of Burmese teak with some figuring or striping.
