I'm not even going to guess if this one is difficult or not. Two pictures, one with flash and one without flash. This is a Rosette square from the Zootman, Holler!

I'm not surprised that everyone is guessing Bubinga because it does look a lot like waterfall Bubinga but it is not Bubinga. In the second picture it shows it very red. The first picture is a more accurate picture of it's true color.

Basically a mahogany
