Auction at Ledbury tomorrow (Friday 24th July)
« on: July 23, 2020, 12:48:50 PM »
This looks interesting, but really only if you can get there and have a proper look.

Sharing for those in the area. Cabinet Makers stock auction including timber that may be attractive to turners.

Same feeling Pete, friend in Cyprus told me about it, I posted here as soon as I had glanced some of the photo's in case there is anyone local or interested enough to travel, but pictures alone were not really enough to bid on.

Yes it was definitely brazillian tulipwood. That one went for £120 in the end.

I ended up buying nothing, everything was more than I was prepared to bid! ;)
