- Price Per Board Foot: High-grade specialty lumber yards retail East Indian Rosewood between $40 and $70 per board foot.
- Premium Figuring: The pronounced, symmetrical cathedrals running down the center of this board make it highly sought after for furniture accents or musical instruments, commanding a price closer to $250 to $290.
- Surface Condition: The board appears surfaced or planed flat on at least one face, saving labor costs and verifying its clean grain.
