This is Louro Faia, also known as Pearlwood. It’s an extremely rare wood type only growing in the Amazon which is mostly used for furniture or instrument crafting. It’s texture looks like the tree went through a bad disease and it’s definitely one of the weirder wood types I have worked with. Louro faia has a sweet, mahogany like smell and is extremely brittle and tends to break easily if you are not careful when handling it. My cnc also doesn’t have the best of times when milling since Louro Faia is pretty far up in the Janka hardness scale. It’s sanding properties are some of the worst I have encountered yet but next to these downsides Pearlwood also has some nice properties. Due to its burl-like nature, holes and scratches are easy to cover up with some saw dust and wood glue and when finishing it with oil or shellac it really stands out as it looks absolutely stunning.
