Information: Redwoods
are the tallest living trees on earth. In the mid 1800’s logging
operations took place in Northern California, where these trees
grow, leaving behind a bunch of stumps that were deemed unusable.
These stumps are now being salvaged. Most of this salvaged wood has
been dried over a hundred years. The stumps often have burl in which the grain is radically deformed because of some
stress or damage and makes small birdseye knots.
This burl wood has an amazing
amount of figured birdseye-- probably some of the highest
concentration of birdseye in any wood in the world.
Paradox
Walnut
is
also known as Bastogne Walnut. This type of walnut is
a hybrid
of
Claro
Walnut
and
English
Walnut.
The
resulting
cross-breeding
has
made
a
beautiful
walnut
wood
which
can
be quite expensive due to its beautiful figure. The Paradox Walnut
wood is used in gunstocks, fine furniture guitars, and even knife
handles. The Paradox Walnut
provides
a
nice
contrast
to
the
Redwood Burl. |
