Wood Glossary:

Bee's wing

Smaller, tighter and more intense than mottled figure, although structurally similar, bee's wing figure is said to resemble that insect's appendage when magnified. East Indian satinwood is extremely well known for having this figure, and it also occurs occasionally in narra, mahogany and eucalyptus.
