Birdseye Maple: Acer saccharum: Also called Sugar maple, Rock maple or Hard maple, this is one of the classic dense american hardwoods. About 1 tree in 100 will show birdseye figure, and of those about 5% are high grade, and this is the top of that grade. Normally i dont stock domestic hardwoods, but the figure in this maple was too good to pass up. These pieces are stabilized by K&G.
