Agreed – it is some kind of crystalline material – soluble or insoluble.

You can try gently brushing the surface with a cotton swab to see if it rolls onto itself or, if inactive, it will brush off the wood into a powder. You can also try using a UV light to see if it illuminates. Some molds will have a white illumination. Hope this helps! It's hard to tell of the close up but the substance looks like it may be a fatty material like wax.

We had a wood object come into the museum, and it has some places on the back where I think it might have been moldy. I know that wood can also ‘bloom,’ but I am not sure which it might be… I know it is hard to tell in photos, but I appreciate any insight that anyone can offer. Thank you so much!
