What is a burl in wood?
1 Answer
A burl in wood is a growth on a tree formed from bud tissue that has not sprouted. The burl forms large, knobby-looking growths on the base and trunk of the tree. Every piece of burl wood is unique, which is one reason they are considered rare and valuable. They come in a variety of sizes and have varying wood textures and colors. Find a collection of antique and vintage burl wood furniture on 1stDibs today.
