Veneer Birdseye Maple

Among hard maples, those that display a distinctive, bead-like bird's-eye figure are known as Bird's Eye Maple. This rare wood is highly valued for use in luxury furniture and musical instruments. Pieces with a high concentration of evenly distributed bird's-eye figure are extremely rare and expensive—appearing in only about one out of every 100 trees, making it a top-grade material. In Europe, it is even considered a "tree that brings happiness." It has been treasured for use in places such as Queen Elizabeth’s private chambers and the interior of Rolls-Royce vehicles.

Other name: Marblewood.
