Species:

Botanical Name: Dalbergia Variabilis.

Origin: Guyana / Brazil.

Of course, its name comes from the color of its veining and the use that was made of it.

Indeed, it was used explicitly in furniture marquetry in the 18th century, particularly to create flower petals.

In England, it took the name of Brazilian Tulipwood, not to be confused with its namesake, the North American Tulipwood, which takes its name from its tulip-shaped flowers.

Although there are many substitutes for Rosewood, only Dalbergia Variabilis, Dalbergia Decipularis, and Dalbergia Fructescens are considered genuine Rosewood.

Nowadays, Rosewood is used for renovating antics (a must in the Louis XV style), creating jewelry, and, as always, in marquetry.

Rosewood is a small tree, rarely exceeding 30 to 40 cm in diameter. It will mature in a hundred years.

The pieces of wood taken from its trunk often have cracks and heart defects; the sapwood on both sides of the heart color wood is also unavoidable.

Rosewood is a dense wood that allows a remarkable finish; however, its work remains a challenge. The smallness of the parts and the possible buckle make it wood for confirmed users, but the result is incomparable.

Product Description:

Genuine wood-sliced veneer sheets.

These veneers are raw without a finish or any fleece back.

The veneer surface is similar to plane wood. However, it will be preferable to forecast a light sanding after gluing.

The veneers are offered here as wood-sliced sheets of one and unique thickness.

Both faces of these veneers are the same, without fleece back, without glue.

Even if the veneer's sides had been cut relatively straight, it isn't a precise parallel clipping; some veneers may have kept the decreasing shape of the tree, wider at the bottom end and narrower at the top end.

Very occasionally, some veneers' sides have traces of unclipped wane, but our veneers are measured at the narrowest, as explained in the paragraph "sizes."

As genuine natural wood, all finishing products are acceptable as long as they are meant for wood use.

The choice of the finished product must be consistent with the final usage realization.
