Information:
Olive
was planted California in the late 1800′s. These trees were
cultivated into short and shrubby trees to allow for machine harvesting of Olives. The
Olive
tree has many branches and these provide some nice
wild looking
knotty wood. Honduras
Rosewood
is a
very hard and heavy wood with multi red and brown colors. Honduras
Rosewood has a distinctive rose fragrance. This wood has been sought
after hundreds of years ago from furniture and musical instrument
makers. Honduras Rosewood sometimes produces a burl in which the grain is radically deformed because of some
stress or damage and makes small birdseye knots.
This burl wood is highly figured and is sliced into veneers and thus accounts for
much of its rarity and price. The Honduras Rosewood Burl that I use
has been sustainably harvested. This piece of burl provides
a nice contrast to the Knotty Olive.
