Hi Friends,

Whoever guesses this wood, I want to give 3 free gifts to the guesser.

I will make a guess:
Tulip Wood?
Regardless, it looks BEAUTIFUL!
Cheers :)

This is fun, I'm going to guess an Alphitonia variety, perhaps pink ash (pink almond)

It seems to be something in the family of rosewoods, maybe cocobolo?

The bookmatching is really interesting on that. I think I'm wrong but I'll guess pear wood!

Nice and kind proposal !

My try: macacauba wood ?

Lovely looking result, it makes a beautiful bowl !

Jody Stecher - 8-25-2021 at 05:11 PM

Pecan wood? Some other nut tree wood?

suz_i_dil - 8-28-2021 at 04:20 AM

more difficult that may have seems :))

Unfortunately, anyone did not know. And time expired today.
If you want I can explain it now or I can wait a little more if you want to guess.

I thought it was some sort of fruit tree wood....
*apricot*pear*cherry*etc...
I hope there is a sound sample!

suz_i_dil - 8-30-2021 at 01:18 PM

i believed very much in the first proposal, tulip wood. Curious to know finally what it is !

MattOud - 8-30-2021 at 04:25 PM

^^which is also known by the names poplar and American whitewood, canary whitewood and canary wood!
I'm curious as well but am happy to wait if others want a kick at the can...:)

Unfortunately, no one gave the correct answer.

The wood is Carob Wood
