PENS, PENCILS - Mandarin (Citrus reticulata)

Learn about this timber

Mandarin trees produce a small orange fruit that is great eaten on its own or in salads. Fruit trees are generally small and slow growing so the timber is usually fine textured and tight grained. The mandarin tree has very even, pale coloured timber and a fairly thin bark.

The timber used for these pens is from prunings from my neighbour's tree.

#2 The gold hardware works beautifully with the paleness of the Mandarin timber. There's a little colour dash in the lower section that could lead the untrained eye to easily mistake the timber as Huon Pine. That's the fun in nature for you!
