Timber Teaze?

[woodbloke]

Something that I was given in Japan...

I know what it's called, but do you? Fairly hard, interlocked, small tree (as you can see from the growth rings) and the image hasn't been Pshopped...that's what it looks like - Rob

It could be balsa though Jim...but I don't think it is. However, there is a clue :-" - Rob

Darn! My next guess was going to Japanese Red Oak....but that put me off!

Aromatic cedar?

Boxwood.

.........Or the Japanese-named equivalent thereof.

Looks like 35+ years growth in that sample alone.
