Purty stuff! I first read the title "rhubarb" - then thought better of it and realized you meant to type "Hubbard" - but some rhubarb sounds real good right now (must be getting toward dinner time).

At first I thought you had a big slab with a limb coming off of it. Now looks like you've got a piece of white that might be slightly translucent. We got a couple of little pieces with other colors mixed into the white, and the little slabs were beauties.

No matter what it is, that stuff polishes up like glass. It immediately became one of my favorite things to cut.

The small piece that you are calling white is really a nice light blue color that is pretty common in Hubbard Basin wood. I use the two pieces and then shot a video of it rotating, but the videos don't want to show up on here if they are too large of a file.
The slab was rip cut or what some call a board cut. I like the effect.

It is cut about an inch think, you can't tell from the photo but it has a mirror polish.

Yeah, looking back at your first photo I do see that light blue color. I apologize for being careless in my description when I called it white. Sometimes I'm a simpleton, and I just called it "white" as compared to the "black" around the edges.

Heh, even with my limited experience with Hubbard Basin wood, I should know to never describe it in black-and-white terms.
