Jatoba 8 x 8 x 2" bowl blank.
Jatoba is probably most commonly known in North America as "Brazilian Cherry". It is exceptionally strong and hard and a great value for woodworkers. It has a good natural luster and its heartwood varies from a light orangish brown to a darker reddish brown, sometimes with contrasting darker grayish brown streaks. Color tends darken upon exposure to light.
