BOX: lower segment is yellowheart and on both side of that are padauk segments. Upper segment is curly maple and on both sides of that are shedua segments.

flaws/issues: none

comments: very nice color-contrast througout on this one, I think, and the near-symmetry works quite well.

The jagged grain pattern in the padauk segments of the BOX is one that I find particularly attractive. It's not terribly rare, but also not all that common. I look for it any time I'm buying padauk.
