Botanical name: Caesalpinia paraguanensis

Origin: Paraguay
Weight: 1200Kg/m³

Dense and glassy deep coffee brown with a layered structure like wenge, but with a much finer texture, resulting in a classic ‘partridge wing’ figure on slab sawn faces.

Partridgewood is generically related to the ebano listed here. It is marginally lighter in weight and in colour but just as dangerous if you drop a piece on your foot.
