Red Mallee burl is an incredible species with vivid color and figure. This native Australian timber has a distinctive mix of pink, red, and violet heartwood with contrasting white sapwood. The wood is dense and easily yields a smooth, durable finish with light sanding. Incredible burl caps offer a natural artistic palette for any artisan. Burl squares and bowl blanks have tight figure and colors that are ideal for bowls, spindles, turned boxes, knives, and other fine articles.
