Black wood grips for 2020 Python

[brazil]

I really like black wood grips on a stainless revolver. I purchased Gabon (sp?) ebony grips for my Smith 686 some time ago but it seems it's hard to find ebony grips anymore.
I recently purchased a 2020 Python and would like to get some type of black wood Target grips for it. Does anyone know a manufacturer that makes them?
I see that Altamont use to make Silver Black grips. Do they still exist? Their webpage says out of stock. Anyone ever purchase Silver Black grips from Altamont? Are they nice?

Sorry for all the questions but TIA for any thoughts.

I have some Blackwoods from Altamont, they are very nice. I think they would look great on a stainless Python.

Here is a set on a Colt 380 (the top one) and a Ruger Single Six

Ebonize lighter color woods with Vinegaroon (iron dissolved in vinegar)
Vinegaroon works best on wood (and leather) with a high tannin content.
Use Black/Dark Brown Stain and Black Shoe Polish if the wood isn't dark enough.

The Silver Black grips from Altamont are good. I bought a set of K/L frame grips from them a while back. Laminate grips are a little sparse nowadays since the RutPly (Rutland Plywood) fire a few years ago. The factory burned to the ground and since they were the largest supplier, supplies dried up. You can still find various products similar to Dymondwood, (what they were originally called) just not as much. The problem with the Silver Black is once it's shaped, it tends to be more silver than black because of the laminate layers. Gabon Ebony is the black ebony, but it's a very hard, dense wood and not easy to work with. Macassar Ebony is black & white ebony for obvious reasons. To get a true black, you are limited to either Gabon Ebony or another wood that takes stain very well. Maple is a good example.
