Bocote wood is yellowish brown to reddish brown, with irregular dark brown or blackish streaks and variegations. A very dramatic grain pattern. It has an oily or waxy appearance. Luster is variable with a fine to medium texture.

No distinctive taste, scent is mildly fragrant when fresh.

Great pieces for small boxes and salad spoons.

Pernambuco wood Pernambuco:
(Guilandina echinata)

This is a Brazilian wood. Known mostly as the wood of choice for high end violin bows, but its dramatic "odd" colour, a metal copper shade, makes it a wonderful wood for small inlays for cutting boards, wooden pens and box corners.

I haven't worked a lot with this wood, but I did inlay it in a cutting board with no difficulty in planing. It added a great contrasting strip with the hard maple.
