Claro Walnut, juglans hindsii. These are meant for flat back mandolins, but have several other applications. I cut a lot of Claro for guitar sets so naturally there is also material for uke and mando sets most of the time. These have done surprisingly well, so I think I'll keep cutting for them. Generally, they come from one of three different batches of figured claro I am slowly working through. A batch could be part of a log, a whole log, or several logs from the same tree. This helps ensure consistency from set to set, so you can expect similar working and sound characteristics from a given batch.

This is old school eastern birdseye with some rolling quilty figure as well. The wood is very dense and the eyes are fairly strong, as the wood is flatsawn, revealing the strongest view of both the eyes and whatever quilt there may be. I just have these mando sets left, the guitar sets I got are long gone. Will make a fabulous mandolin with classic maple reference grade tone.
