Our friends at Hibdon Hardwood has donated this wonderful set of AAAA T'zalam which retails for $200.00.
The dimensions for the back set are 22-1/4" x 8-7/8"; the sides are 32-3/4" x 5-3/8".

OLF'er Andrew Gribble had this to say.
"It is often referred to as Mayan Walnut and is similar to Black Walnut
though it is a little heavier and a bit more dense."

Thanks so much Hibdon Hardwood! And let the bidding begin!
