Ziricote is some crazy looking stuff. No other wood ends up quite looking like the random patterning that is reminiscent of spider webs and spiraled stacks. The wood is still somewhat prone to cracking even at 1/4″ thickness, be warned before you go tossing your bag around roughly.
Great news in that this wood native to Mexico and Central America is not listed on Cites or IUCN threatened species, the bad news is that it is unfortunately rather expensive.
