Tamo Ash, also known as, Japanese Ash, which is not to be confused with " Sen " which is also called Japanese Ash which, unlike tamo, is not actually an Ash. Tamo comes from Southeast Asia especially Japan. This wood can really pop when it is rotary cut. It is pretty unlikely that you will ever find much tamo lumber but there seems to be an ample supply of veneer. We usually have some in inventory but with the renewed interest in dark woods we have noticed that it hasn't been overly popular lately. That doesn't mean that it isn't beautiful, its just not everyones cup of tea right now.
