Produced in Africa, because it is particularly red, some people mistakenly think it is mahogany.

But this kind of red is only in color, not in density. Take a piece commonly known as "safflower pear" and another piece of real rosewood, cut the two pieces into the same specifications and weigh them by hand. You will find that "safflower pear" is much lighter than real rosewood, and it can be nailed in. Real rosewood can't be nailed in, and it will crack when nailed in.
