Not a lot of hardwood experience here so pardon what may be just be an ignorant question. I was edging a router table top with wood recently purchased at a small aution. Assumed to all be white oak, several of the boards are more brown and even colored and this was what I was using. Open grained and creamy brown color and not a lot of figure in the piece I was cutting. My wife pointed out to me that in the bright sun light it sparkles. Lots of little glimers or points of light as the wood is moved around reflecting the light. Is this oak or something else? Thanks
