Tulipwood is a tropical South American wood of extraordinary beauty. It has yellow, red, orange and pink streaks mingled in all sorts of unique patterns. Both the intensity and color can be very varied, which really gives each piece a unique personality. Of course, beauty is not everything. To be used as a wood for wind instruments it must be well turned, hard, moisture resistant and have a good finish. Tulipwood, one of our most striking woods, possesses all of these qualities to varying degrees.
