Description
Indian Rosewood (Dalbergia latifolia) is a highly valued hardwood native to the Indian subcontinent, renowned for its rich color, tonal qualities, and exceptional durability. The wood features a dark brown to purple-brown base, often accented by darker streaks or subtle golden hues, with a fine, uniform grain and a smooth texture. These characteristics make it a popular choice for high-end furniture, cabinetry, flooring, and decorative veneers.
In the world of musical instruments, Indian Rosewood is one of the premier tone woods for guitar backs and sides, as well as fretboards. Its density and resonance produce warm, well-balanced tones with excellent sustain and clarity, making it favoured by luthiers and musicians alike. Indian Rosewood is easy to work with, responds well to carving and shaping, and takes a smooth finish, enhancing its natural beauty. Its combination of strength, aesthetics, and acoustic properties has earned Indian Rosewood a reputation as one of the finest and most versatile woods in woodworking and instrument-making.
