Padauk is interesting as you never quite know what you're going to get for color. It can range from pinkish orange to a deep brownish red. This stock turned out a deep vibrant orange with some unique, rich color as well as wonderful shimmer and depth in the grain.
Finished with a semi-gloss polyacrylic which will not amber, though the wood may darken over time if exposed to UV light.
NOTE: There were only 6 sets of these panels made. The pictures shown are of one set of panels. The panels you receive may be slightly different, but all were cut from the same piece of stock.
