Bud rosewood is a premium, exotic hardwood also known as Padauk or Crimson Rosewood, valued for its rich reddish-brown tones, high strength, and unique appearance. Sourced from rosewood tree roots or as a general term for the wood, it is a rare and expensive material primarily used for crafting durable, high-end, and visually striking chess pieces and boards. The wood's elegant color deepens with age, enhancing its value for both play and display.
