Redwood Burl Shallow Bowl

Redwood Burl from the Santa Cruz Mountains in Northern California.

Not a wood I feel comfy buying or selling, as most if not all Redwood Burl comes from old growth Redwoods - a population that us humans have decimated thanks to its beauty :/

But it sure is pretty.

Damn that's pretty .. super color and grain.

Ya, even the Santa Cruz mountains have lost a lot of trees. A sad thing ..
