Wish I knew.  I got this wood from a supplier in New Zeland.  It is real dense and heavy .. a chocolate brown polishes nicely.  I normally mark the species on the wood ... must have forgotten to do that with this one for some reason.

I love doing the free standing puzzles.  I usually find patterns then tweak them to suit myself.
You can go to my site to see the ones I have done for a November craft show.  I am now trying to figure out how to price them.  I cut mine from birch, then use different color Min-wax.

That piece is really pretty and you did a great cutting job no matter what is cut from.
