Macassar Ebony (Diospyros celebica) has a dramatic striped appearance, somewhat similar to zebrawood, that is dark brown to black heartwood with contrasting bands of yellow to golden brown. Very hard, dense, and heavy, it can be very brittle at its heart. It has a dulling effect on cutters. The grain is usually straight but tear-out may occur on pieces that have interlocked or irregular grain. Uses include high-end cabinetry, inlay work, musical instruments, and decorative applications.
