Some medium fine curl in this Honduran Mahogany set, that is actually rather pale in comparison to my stash of various types of Mahogany. But none the less, it's quite pretty, and contrasts nicely with the really curly Sapelele bindings.

Fret board and peg head veneers in Indian Rosewood. Rosette in spalted Mango.

Another beauty. And I can see an eye looking at me from the rosette - spooky...

The grain on the rosette resembles fur to my eye...it looks more like you're following a cat.

Indeed a strange kind of mahogany, nice color I like it. Is it hard?

Yes, works and feels like any other mahogany. Just a different color.
