From a blank sourced in the US ten years ago. Plodding through glued up blanks. Wherever Burl is obtained this one is consistent with the ones found offshore Australia and New Guinea. I stumbled into my box of NG spidershells for the first pic for fun. The second two pics to show the delicate patterns in the burl with more or less light.
