The wood is not rosewood, which would have a much more obvious and rather streaky grain-pattern; but some sort of stained hardwood. The eyes on mine were inlaid, small pieces of bone with painted pupils.</p><p>The ones I got from my parents would date to the 1960s, but styles haven't changed from then to the present day.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
