Boxwood Shawm 320x70x70 mm

Overview Boxwood Shawm 320x70x70 mm:

In Maderas Barber we have 3 sizes available for the construction of shawms, depending on the tastes of the builder or if it will be based on one of the many regional models (Aragonese, Castilian, gralla...).

Boxwood, probably the hardest wood used in the old continent before the appearance of exotic woods, continues to be one of the favorite woods in the construction of bagpipes. Its hardness, together with the ease with which it turns and the level of detail and filigree it allows are some of its many points in its favor. The only problem with this wood, the small available size of its pieces, is not even such for all those who, like bagpipe builders, do not need large sections. Its light color, between yellow and ochre, is really attractive, and the softness of its touch once worked is frankly good.
