  • Tamarind woodWood named Tamarind, usually Tamarindus indica: a hard, dense, dark-hearted tropical wood.
    About this material

    The tamarind tree (Tamarindus indica, Fabaceae) is native to tropical Africa and widely grown across the tropics. Its heartwood is hard, dense and dark reddish-brown. The product description names the wood only as 'Tamarind', so the botanical identification rests on the common name.

Wood, seeds and stones are natural materials, so colour, grain and markings vary from piece to piece. The materials of some parts, such as cords and beads, are not stated in the product descriptions.

The “About this material” texts are general background information written by us, not statements from the maker. Where the product description gives no botanical or mineral name, any name shown is the usual one for the common name and has not been confirmed by the maker.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about ordering, shipping and payment.

How do I choose between a Kuripe (self) and Tepi (partner)?↓

How do I clean and sanitize wooden or silver applicators?↓

Wipe the exterior with a soft cloth. Do not clean tepi or kuripe with Agua de Florida. For inner barrels, use a thin dry pipe cleaner. Avoid submerging wooden items in water.

Which materials are used?↓

Is shipping discreet?↓
