Leopardwood

Leopardwood (Roupala montana), is a species native to South America, particularly found in countries like Brazil and Argentina. This species is known for its distinctive spotted or flecked appearance, resembling the coat of a leopard, hence its common name.

Leopardwood features a pale to medium brown background with dark spots or flecks scattered throughout, creating a visually striking grain pattern. This wood is prized for its aesthetic appeal and is often used in decorative woodworking, veneers, and fine furniture making.

Physically, Leopardwood is moderately dense and has good workability.
