Ebony grading:

Ebony pieces of A Grade do not present obvious defects, but the color is not as uniform or dark as in higher grades, yet they still retain their beauty and the dark tone typical of ebony. The direction of the grain may not be as straight as in AAA or AA but this does not prevent them from being absolutely perfect to be used normally.
