“Burl wood is sourced from large, round deformities on trees that are suffering from a viral, fungal or insect infestation. Although the deformity is unsightly from the outside, it creates a one-of-a-kind grain pattern that can be used to make stunning tables, chairs, mirror and bed frames, and for the buyer who has the budget, large-scale built-in wall units.”

(MARIAN MCPHERSON, 2020)
