rosewood
Dark luxury timber
Rosewood is a dense, richly colored hardwood prized for fine furniture, musical instruments, and decorative woodwork.
The wood comes from several tropical tree species and typically features deep reddish-brown to purple hues with distinctive dark streaking.
Its name derives from the faint rose-like fragrance released when the wood is cut.
Rosewood's beauty and durability have made it so desirable that several species are now protected due to overharvesting.
