Cocus (Brya ebenus) comes from West India and Central America. It is also called Jamaica ebony. Despite the name, it has absolutely nothing to do with coconut palms. The tree reaches a height of 40-50m, but the trunk diameter remains rather small.
The cocus wood is hard and dense. It can be worked excellently and is a sought-after wood for turning. It is mainly used for woodwind instruments or brush backs. The heartwood is brown to reddish-brown, interspersed with dark lines and also reddish spots. The sapwood is light yellow.
Dimensions: approx. 330 x 160 x 30 mm

Finely grained wood may contain imperfections such as open knots, bark inclusions, or cracks that are typical of the species. These flaws come from the way the tree has grown and are completely natural. They can usually be filled with low-viscosity cyanoacrylate (super glue) and wood dust.
