Karelian Birch
This highly figured wood comes from Finland. I is backed by 5 layers of Bubinga, Karelian Birch, and Brazilian Rosewood at the center.
I made 5 of these pins. This is the last of the group. A very famous Hollywood actress owns 1 of the other 4. I tell you who it is, if you buy it! Since this cool little pin is sold, I can now reveal which actress owns one of the other pins in the series.....Linda Gray of "Dallas" fame (among her many credits).
