I have been doing some checking on sources for product and have spoken with Blue Sun...They are out of business as of April 31st with the new owners possibly picking up their line but they are actually the distributor for Aqua Blue Maui
out of Hawaii. I placed an order witht hem yesterday to see what kind of quality they are offering and will relay the info as soon as it arrives. The one thing they do is paint the shell in deifferent colors and they tend to be geared more towards inlay because they put opaque colors on the back to enhance the shell from the front.
He said that they would stop doing that for anyone that requests it and just send the natural stuff to you.

I have purchased quite a few sheets and expect them next week and will let you know the quality compared to what was available through Rick.
