I always assumed this was mahogany until I got all that finish off it. Then I could see it was the same kind of wood used in the Snug. It's not a particularly pretty wood (my friend, Joseph calls it "monkeywood") so they stained it so dark that the grain would never show.

I get my hands on. That's not true. It's just that a great
many clocks pass through my doors and some would just never get displayed
without a complete makeover.
