I bought some wood at a woodworker’s estate sale. Can you identify the species ? (i.imgur.com)

The guy’s children were doing the sale and didn’t know what this is. It was too beautiful to pass up.

Here’s another angle. The pics are really close to the actual color.

I forgot to say I’m in the Pacific Northwest, though there was wood from all over. The guy was a woodworker for 35 years.
