Hi Richard,

You may want to ask your question here: The Carving Path

The Carving Path is a forum for netsuke carvers.

We have Boxwood here at a local supplier but I think there are suppliers closer to you.

Hi mate try these...Yandles
have had some from here, you would have to email them for boxwood, its not always on their site, the only problem with box, is its very heavy for posting...what sizes are you thinking of? mark....

Fly Fisher - I'm going to attend the Dayton carving show this Sunday & I'll check for suppliers. If I find any I'll be sure to get their information & send it back to you

Sorry, I didn't see anybody selling Boxwood at the Dayton show. it was a good show with all the booths. Not sure how anybody did sales wise ? I only bought some Butternut.
