The intricate top design features several wood types and techniques:
Rosewood: Used as the primary veneer for the large panels.
Macassar Ebony: This wood is known for its distinctive dark, striped grain, similar to what is seen in the outer bordering.
Birdseye Maple or Satinwood: The lighter, yellowish decorative bands are often made from birds eye maple or satinwood, which are prized for their unique grain patterns and sheen.
Veneer Techniques: The table utilizes book matched veneers, where two adjacent surfaces are mirrored to create a symmetrical pattern, and marquetry for the fine inlaid details.
