This wonderful wood turning is created from Brown Mallee Burl. Brown Mallee burl is known for it’s beautiful color and figure.
It is native to Australian and has a unique mixture of brown and golden heartwood with sapwood that is quite contrasting.
A dense wood that has a spiny appearance of the outer bark of the burl are simply out of this world!
This Mallee Burl piece has a unique feature in that is still has some of the tree attached to the burl, as if it were peeled from the tree. This creates a tail effect that really makes this piece a stunner!
The bark has been treated with a polyurethane while the inner dish is treated with natural oils and wax.
