I couldn't resist. I sprayed on one coat of lacquer, just to see what this wood was going to look like. I was amazed. The depth of the grain is amazing. When you rotate the piece, you get a tiger eye effect, just like quilted mahogany, but with the burl streaks in it. I think this is going to be a real piece of art.
