Anybody good at identifying wood?

I also have a lolpic about mahogany but I feel I've **** in this thread enough.

However, you /better/ post pics, if you're making something inspired by that table. That thing is badass.

It looks like cherry wood to me.

My bet is Mahogany with what likes from the pics red mag stain. If you posted a pic further away showing the coloring of the wood it would help. But pics are hard to judge by. Mahogany And Spanish Cedar look a lot alike. Spanish cedar is terrible about leaching oils out and curdling the finish. I hate the stuff, 20 yrs paint experience.

Hard to tell from the pics but the grain looks like mahogany or spanish cedar.

I agree with this.
