Mopani (or Mopane as the names are used interchangeably) has a very fine grain and a deep brown color that darkens over time. It polishes to a wonderful shine and is one of the 10 heaviest woods in the world. However it is often overlooked for more popular African woods due to its reputation for being a dense and difficult to work wood.

Elizabeth Dykstra (verified owner) –
Ordered these for my husband. He absolutely adores them, turned out even prettier than in the picture! Beautiful dark shine, great weight, and arrived more quickly than expected.
Leigh Macaro –
This is my second set. First was rainbow poplar which – while very pretty – are lighter than I had anticipated, and a bit too light for my taste. These have a much better heft (for me). Very nice feel, beautiful dice
