Thuja Burl - 2 small slabs (SPECIAL)
Thuya Burl Slabs (from Nth Africa) This is one of the few softwoods that is fire adapted to produce a root burl (lignotuber).
It IS RARE and Expensive and for small very special items inlays boxes, pens etc.
Its is moderately dense, resinous, fragrant and with lovely figure & birdseeds.
Its rumored that, Caesar when he saw it thought it so beautiful he wanted a table made from it!!
Colours are nicer richer darker in real life ...

Has a small corner missing and bit missing on edge one side, If sawn in 2 - 3 it will form lovely book match pieces for drawer front box lids etc)
