Precious woods are something really special. We are drawn to the complexities of grain, the glorious richness of their colours and their sleek, marble-like handfeel. Nick works these precious woods with sensitivity, care and respect - knowing how important they are as specimens to be enjoyed by future generations.
We source our precious woods from trusted importers who have demonstrated their passion for, and strict compliance with lawful international wood trading.

Full description
We present a Kingwood & Snakewood seven tree boxed set collection crafted by Nick Titmus, Artisan Woodturner, in his workshop in Nottingham, UK.
This Precious Woods Collection comprises four trees crafted from Kingwood in ‘fir tree’ style. These trees have three ‘skirts’ and measure 7.5 cm in height. The bold humbug-tiger grain is a melange of fascinating magenta, toffee, aubergine and coffee tones. The handfeel is like marble. As a dramatic contrast to the Kingwood trees, there are three elegant trees crafted from Snakewood in ‘bullet’ style. These copper and snakeskin patterned trees also measure 7.5 cm in height. The handfeel is glossy and cool.
Kingwood (Dalbergia cearensis) is a native to Brazil/Mexico. It is listed on CITES: Appendix II. (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora).
Snakewood (Brosimum guianense) is a native to Southern Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean and is not CITES listed. As a rare and small tree, pieces of snakewood timber that display the characteristic snakeskin pattern are perhaps the most expensive of any exotic hardwoods worldwide.
Designed by Karen & Nick Titmus in Nottingham
