Santos Rosewood shares many characteristics of true rosewoods including its colors, working properties, and density. It glues better and is less expensive than other true rosewoods.

Santos Rosewood is not a true rosewood as the scientific name does not have Dalbergia in it, but rather it is a part of the Macherium genus which has about a dozen species. It originates mainly from Bolivia. The origin of the name Santos Rosewood, comes from the port of Santos in Brazil, which is the port where it was shipped from to overseas destinations.
