Burl identification

[Gadget]

I need some help identifying some burl I have had for over 10 years. I was told it was madrone burl but I don't think so. I wet it in the pic so the color would pop.

That could be Madrone.

I had a piece that looked a lot like this, was told it was red wood burl. Does it turn and sand very easily?

Much harder than redwood burl. In fact its super hard almost like an Australian burl like red malle.

On the IAP site check out "classified" forum, Aussie burls.
