I've never had access to a stave but Laburnum grows very well in Nova Scotia.   Which makes sense from a climate perspective.

From my perspective you can treat laburnum without sapwood like Osage.
Flatbows in Mollegabet-Style gives great performance...

Good work on a character stave, I like it. Laburnum is the nicest wood ever, you should post a pic when the heartwood had turned into choclate brown in some months.
I wouldn't make the overlays are very massive - only my 2cents.

Thank you Simson, I follow your work, you are an inspiration to me, I saw your teke down laburnum - beautiful and demanding work ...
