This
rare Brazilian Tulipwood look-a-like is a true Dalbergia species and
like many others in the genus it has flashy color, an aromatic smell,
is fairly hard and heavy, and is very stable in use. These pieces were
originally cut as guitar fingerboards, for which they are excellent,
but they can also be used for box sides, drawer fronts, etc.
