comments: The chechem in view 7 is really terrific, as is clearly visible in the pics below. The zircote in view 1 has some nice ray flakes at the bottom --- it started off with a full surface of beautiful ray flakes, but as the angle of turning changed the cut, they went away. The teak in view 6 is nicely figured because it is surrounding a knot (and I chose it for that reason).
