Looks like pine to me. I dont see any signs of it being anything else. Simply looks like old, well worn pine. Cant see what you’re referring to as “birdseye” anywhere. Nor any indications of it being black or rock maple or any species of maple other than the blonde color of the wood. The color is the only part of posted pics that can be used to identify the species. If you want more info, post close up pics of endgrain, and other closeups of the grain. Look for the rays anywhere but in the endgrain specifically. And lastly, this is just thinking aloud, but in my experience, hardwood furniture (just in my experience) usually isnt painted, especially if it’s got some beautiful figure like birdseye or good curl, further leaning toward pine or another kind of utilitarian species.

The “FIG” written down was very likely an abbreviation of the word “figured”.
There is no such thing as a “type” of quilted maple, or any other wood for that matter. The word “quilted” ONLY describes the kind of figure the board displays, and ANY species of tree can end up with it. Yes, there are species that quilting appears in far more often than others, but the quilt figure doesn’t indicate species in any way. And finally, your board is a gorgeous example of very “curly” aka “tiger” or “flame” figure. Unfortunately, it isn’t technically quilted.( The bottom portion might be considered quilted, but I personally would call it very heavy curling.) However, it IS an utterly BEAUTIFUL piece of maple. Most likely maple anyway. Possibly birch, but unlikely. Hopefully this helps.

Quilted is the name of a type of figure found in lumber. “Quilted” decribes the pattern of figure. Is is NOT only found in Acer Macrophyllum, but can occur in ANY maple species, and MANY other families and species. Furthermore, that figure is just very heavy curl, not an example of quilt figure.

That is quilted maple, quilt is a figure found only in the west coast maple.

That is fiddle back maple
Probably from the eastern United States

I just planed a mystery board from Craigslist, the only label on it was “FIG” the guy I got it from thought it was a fig tree but I think this is some kind of quilted maple?

also haswhat looks like a birdseye maple?

what is this

Not sure how far into the tree the figuring goes, but from my experience, it seems to be relatively localized in only one area of the board.

Good, quality quilted maple is definitely rarer than quality curly maple. I don’t know the precise numbers, but personally, I see much more curly maple than quilted, and when I do see quilted maple, it’s usually mediocre. The good stuff is worth a bundle.
