It may be Australian walnut, does it have sort of a black walnut colour but with parallel stripes like ribbon mahogany? I don't know how hard or easy it is to damage though, many Rogers-Majestic built sets had most of the cabinet covered with the stuff, even consoles and they don't seem to chip or gouge any worse then the conventional French walnut that most sets use.
Regards
