maidu Pterocarpus Pedatus / Maidu

Botanical Name: Pterocarpus Pedatus

Indo China. Vietnam. Another light to medium red coloured veneer. Maidu has a coarse texture and can be very hard to work with. This veneer is one of those veneers that will need to be papered prior to being worked due to its brittle and crumbly nature. Rather rare and expensive. Could be used for portraiture, animal subjects, mountains and rocks, foliage, bushes and floral subjects.
