Thanks, Eddy. The picture shows the wood being honey colored with red highlights. The mesquite is actually somewhat darker than that. Still beautiful, but not so striking as in the picture. Guess I should have played with the color balance a bit before uploading. And now since I've given the piece away, getting another picture might be difficult.
