Yes... the grain is highlighted with some anilene stain that goes into the curly grain pattern... plus the photo was with a flash so it really pops the grain.... it is tiger maple... commonly called fiddleback maple since it is used on the back sound panel on top quality fiddles.

I am a stickler when it comes to furniture fit and finish... ... plenty of hand chiseled recesses for those brass hinges ... basic mortise and tenon joints... to give the best gluing surfaces for long lasting joints

I think we both got great deals... every time I visit her in Boston I will get to enjoy the table again... plus she is a great cook!

She got a great deal.... I know what went into that piece. Always nice to work with top grade materials too!
