*Cocobolo is the commonly used name of the famous Central American treed Dalbergia retusa and is also known under the names Mexican Rosewood and Central American Rosewood. What makes Cocobolo interesting is that its internal wood structure comes in a wide array of colors, ranging from black, brown, and purple, to brighter hues such as red, orange, and even yellow. It’s sapwood that contains many useful oils that give Cocobolo a unique smell and its aroma is usually pale yellow.
