Here's David's comments on the Royal question.
"Royal is one of the many varieties of macassar found in SE Asia. One island over we have black and tan and green colors (Malaysian blackwood) the next island, more black and white (typical Macassar), the next is the purple, green, black (the Royal), etc. A little hybridization going on, micro climates, soil, along with names to distinguish the varieties, but all ebonacea."
