Spalted Beech Collection
Spalted Beech Collection
Simply beautiful.
These bowls were turned from slabs of culled American Beech Flair Butt. The wood was discarded in the woods in Media, PA, where it sat long enough to be colonized by various fungi who erected barriers to protect their food source, creating distinct black zone lines. Finished with Betty’s Board Butter (beeswax & food safe mineral oil).
