This extraordinary hardwood burl showcases over 200 years of natural growth, marked by swirling grain, compressed rings, and a richly figured burl. The growth rings are deeply contoured, drawing the eye inward toward a dramatic central void — a natural feature formed through age and decay.
Flowing into the lower section, the rings are pulled and indented into a pronounced burl, creating a wild, chaotic grain that captures the tree’s resilience through stress or injury. Rich tones of honey gold, deep red, and dark spalting reveal the tree’s complex life story.
Tight branch knots at the crown ripple outward with feathered grain, adding movement and texture to the piece. This slab is a powerful statement of time, struggle, and beauty — ideal as a sculptural wall piece, storytelling centrepiece, or preserved timber artifact.
