The photos are hard to see but I can't detect a grain pattern in the rosette and it looks uneven on sides and shows significant shrinkage. Is it even wood?

That's what it looks like from the photo

This is what I was afraid of, but I think you’re right. This is why it looks the way it does. I have faith that it can be repaired, but it’s not so simple.
