Sheesham is also referred to as Indian Rosewood. Native to India, Pakistan and Nepal, it is primarily found growing along river banks and is best known internationally as a premier timber species of the Rosewood genus. Sheesham is among the finest ornamental timbers and makes spectacular chess pieces!

Boxwood is a favorite with woodcarvers because it takes fine detail. It is a dense wood that is so heavy it hardly floats. In 15th century Europe, Boxwood was widely used for engraving and printing. It was also believed to be the best wood for making molds since it could be intricately carved and would retain the details of the design. It remains a popular choice for wood sculptures and carvings today.
