Re the original question:
It is a modern wood layered laminate.
They are typically stable and strong and heavy. Laminates are used
in rifle stocks as well, where their weight mitigates recoil, and their stability resists the bending caused by temperature and humidity changes when regular wood is used.
Since they are multi-colored, wood turns this material to great effect.

The Pan Am model used a single source veneer applied over another material.

I have made pens from laminate stock, but I have not made barrels from it.

disclaimer: I make and sell custom clarinet barrels.
