Trades have been a little slow here lately. I have a few poorly identified woods here, figured it might make interesting trade bait - all fancy material, just off on ID. Here is...
A board that came to me labelled "Rosewood ?". Smells lightly spicy, don't know. 20 x 5 x 1"
A board labelled "somekinda rosewood". Maybe honduran? 19.5 x 4.5 x 1"
A dark wood from a mixed batch of gaboon and macassar ebony that doesn't look like either to me. 22.5 x 2.25 x 1.375".
A dark wood with purple undertones from a batch of African blackwood. Glassy tone, smells right, lighter in weight than blackwood, not intense enough for bois de rose. 11 x 1.5 x 1.5"
Dark, heavy wood, no idea. 11.5 x 2 x 2"
Small piece that looks and smells like non instrument quality Brazilian rosewood to me, but who knows. 13 x 1 x 0.375"
Looking to trade for one chunk of something fancy and unusual - I am a sucker for woods I've never tried before.
