Brazilian Rosewood
Brazilian Rosewood is a highly valued hardwood known for its rich color and beautiful grain patterns. It is primarily found in Brazil and is often used in high-end furniture, musical instruments, and decorative items. The wood has a deep reddish-brown hue, which can darken over time, and is prized for its durability and resonance.
Due to overharvesting and habitat loss, Brazilian Rosewood is now considered endangered. It is listed under the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES), which regulates its trade to protect the species. Sustainable alternatives are being sought to preserve this valuable resource.
