I don't run a whole lot of exotics, but I will when the stars align. Found a couple pristine clear quartered ribbony slabs of African Padauk up in Washington last year, with dimensions so perfect and efficient I couldn't pass them up! These are pretty much as good as padauk gets...straight tight clean quartered and ribbony, with excellent and even color. The bright orange will age to a deeper rustier and browner version of itself over time, as is the case with all padauk. Still totally fantastic.
