Burl
Burl is a grain characteristic that happens in many types of wood. Burlwood results from harvesting a tree or a portion of a tree that has a burl. A burl is a growth on a tree formed from unsprouted bud tissue. The burl forms large, knobby-looking growths on the base and trunk of the tree. Burls are typically found on the trunk or branches of trees, but they can also occur on the roots. Burls are composed of many small fibers that are all growing in different directions. This gives them a unique appearance, and it also makes them very strong. Amboyna burl is among the world's rarest and most expensive veneers—holding the distinction of being the original wood used on Rolls Royce dashboards. Leaves are small in dimension due to the small size of the burl.
Condition: The overall condition of this chair is excellent. Beside the little normal wear, there is no structural damage to the wood. All parts are secured and the piece has been carefully inspected to guarantee the condition and authenticity.
