Rarely seen on the world market, this extremely rare rosewood species seldom makes it to the US shore due to fact that this trees can only be found in Laos and Burma in a very small area in these two countries. The trees itself is rather small, thus only produces little amounts of useable wood and the European are buying it all up whenever they can (they know good wood when see one)
