Origin: England

Dryness: Kiln dried
Inky black to very dark brown and with a significantly higher density and hardness than ordinary oak, bog oak was created when prehistoric forests were submerged under water and silt in anaerobic conditions thousands of years ago. This stock has been carbon dated and is 6300 years old.

The black colour is a chemical reaction between the tannin in the oak and ferrous compounds in the water.

Bog oak is one of the most difficult woods to dry. A very large percentage of material is lost in the drying process and this largely explains the price.

Dalbergia variabilis. Tulip is also called: jacaranda, bahia rosewood, pink wood, jacaranda Rosa, and bois de rose. This rosewood is a small tree (shrub) that averages 2-10" in diameter without sapwood. Most billets are 3-5" in diameter as this is a rare species and is only found in small 1" or 2" lumber or veneer and is not plentiful in either. There is a prominent heart defect that prevents many clean boards over 4-5" in width. In fact the average width is only 2-3/8". Weighing about 60 pounds per cubic foot, the wood is dense and takes a very nice polish. Used for fine articles including knife handles, turning, jewelry boxes, and pens. Brazil

Brown Mallee (An Aboriginal word) is from the Goldfield region in Western Australia. More of a growth form than a species of Eucalypt, it typically comes from poor sandy soil areas found in this region. Some multi branched Eucalypt develop large underground woody swellings (lignotubers). These produce the stunning tight burls patterns gold to medium brown colors of the brown Mallee Burl . A very elegant look!

Brown Mallee burl has a a tightly convoluted twirling grain and tight eyes. Streaks of light tan may be present in some pieces, giving a highly sought after two-tone appearance. And, as with any burl, there may be slight voids and checks in the wood. The burl is has been left for at least a year to dry naturally.
