Norfolk Island Pine, Cook Pine
The Norfolk Island Pine grows to 140 feet with a diameter of up to 3 feet. The wood is lightweight (specific gravity .44), has a decided “knotty pine” character, and strength characteristics of Rocky Mountain Douglas-fir. The trees are widely available in Hawai‘i. The wood has a characteristic pine color. The most stunning modern use of these closely related species is for bowl turning. In finely turned bowls, the wood can take on a brilliant translucence very difficult to replicate with other woods. Norfolk and Cook pine wood is virtually identical.
