New in stock. Soft red with yellow hue subtle red streaking. Good cabinet wood. Snakewood is as figured as wood gets - looks like Snakeskin. As with all of the woods we ship, the pieces will be clean and free of checks.
Figure is normally more prominent on one face than it is on the other.
It is as pretty - just different. The price is marked down only because it is not as well known. Verawood is as green and dense as Lignum, but without the alternating hard and soft layers that Lignum has. It isn't as oily either. Color deepens with time.
