Lignum Vitae
Plant · Rare
So dense it sinks, and self-lubricating with its own resin: it made the deadeyes and belaying pins of sailing ships, pulleys, mallets, clock parts and the propeller shaft bearings of ships down to the first nuclear submarine. Its name means wood of life: boiled, it was taken across Europe as a cure for syphilis.
