This time I'm using a slightly more complicated pattern, but tbh unfortunately not a pattern that I had to learn anew. For the lantern frame I'm using American Nutwood. At least that is what we call it here in Germany. I don't know which kind of nut exactly that is. The color is brown, obviously. It also shimmers purple when the light is right.
I also guess walnut: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juglans#Wood
Thanks you both, this fits my description perfectly.
