I'm planning on making a compass rose to install in a bar top. If all goes well, I may be making one or more for neighbors. I want to use holly and Gaboon ebony for the bar top. I have enough ebony on hand but need to purchase some holly.
I've never worked with holly. I don't think I've ever seen a piece of holly, other than pictures. Any suggestions on where to find stock good enough for something like a compass rose? What to look for when buying holly? What online stores sell it that are good to deal with?
Thanks,
Julie
