Pterocarya microphylla is a dicotyledonous plant belonging to Pterocaryaceae and Pterocarya. The lobular rosewood is a fine product in rosewood, which is characterized by high density, small brown eyes, very stable wood and not easy to deform and crack. It is mostly produced in tropical and subtropical virgin forests, and the rosewood produced in Mysore, India and Myanmar is the best. The texture is hard, and the color changes from reddish brown to purple black after playing, and the texture is delicate.
There are many kinds of rosewood. Rosewood grows slowly. It only takes five years to grow once a year, and it takes more than 800 years to become wood. Its hardness ranks first in wood, and it is called "the wood of kings", which is incomparable to ordinary wood.
The real Indian lobular rosewood is red when it is new, and it becomes darker when worn on your hands. Compared with African rosewood, purple has patterns and is oily. African rosewood is black, dull and thick in fiber. There are many "cow hair lines" after drying and shrinking. This "cow hair pattern" is actually a gap caused by different biological shrinkage degrees. It is said that Ye Tan is new sandalwood and lobular is old sandalwood.
