Black durable hardwood (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ebony

(Other definitions for ebony that I've seen before include "Material for key" , "hard stuff" , "Tree with blackish wood" , "Hard wood used for black piano keys and in cabinetwork" , "Heavy hard wood, usually black" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
