I suspect that this piece had been harvested over 25 years ago and while I will not purchase any more Afzelia on the wood market in the future I am glad I could at least preserve this specimen largely in it’s entirety

I love the wavy grain pattern in Russian Olive as well as the light colored precambrian layer just under the bark
