flaws/issues: There is a hairline stress separation at the right of the BOX, another at the maple veneer/mahogany joint in view 1, and another at the canary/oak joint in view 2. These can be both seen and felt and are the cause of the low price on the bowl.
comments: The pine in view 1 is chatoyant, which I don't often see in pine.
