The wood was great!
But it absolutely defies all logic as to why they feel the need to put a gooey f#*&&@*g sticker on ever single piece. Seriously! I know what I ordered and where I ordered it from. I don't need a label that takes an hour out of my day to dick around with to remove it. Just stop it!

The sample that I received was very orange, but it will work ok for our projects. We used padauk before but it was more red and worked beautifully as an accent. We use small pieces of wood to inlay crosses, boxes and frames. We are not a business, it's a hobby and we use mostly reclaimed wood. We donate most of our work to our local hospital gift shop, which is a nonprofit.

Great quality. It's just what I ordered. Definitely will be purchasing more wood from this company.

I used this wood to make a ring box for my west point class ring. I was a little apprehensive about using sample wood, but it was actually very high quality wood with great character. I couldn't be happier with the result.

Good for furniture
Nice grain, good muted shades of red throughout. While grain is more muted than say bubinga, it is still very handsome.
