What is burled wood?
1 Answer

Burled wood is wood with a unique grain characteristic that results from harvesting a tree that has a burl. A burl is a tree growth often caused by injury, fungus, virus, or insects. The stress from the growth causes pressure on the wood and creates intense grain patterns.
