Whats this wood??

[nosuchhounds]

Found this in a box of offcuts i bought from ebay. Lovely grain, pinkish in colour with yellow sap wood. Any ideas?

It looks like Iroko to me

Looks very like Bubinga or African rosewood. Good for turning but prone to pockets of gum. Makes nice veneers as well.

I was planning on resawing and bookmatching it for an inset jewellry box lid
