This stunning timber reminded us of stone or marble and as such this piece was designed to look a bit more monumental than others. This type of timber is exactly what we developed the straight sided, Fairlight shape for, the simplicity of the form lends itself perfectly to allowing the complex pattern of the wood to show its true personality and beauty uninhibited. Crafted from sustainably sourced wood, it offers timeless beauty ands is perfect as a standalone décor piece.

To produce this unique material fallen Beech trees are left on their sides for between 3-5 years and during this time various species of fungi cause the patterns as they break the log down. Once the wood is milled and dried the fingi die off and the beautiful results are locked in place waiting to be revealed by our chisels. Between the time in the woodland and then air drying it can be 6-8 years after the tree was felled before we get our hands on this material and our challenge is to make sure that we do it justice and turn something truly beautiful from it.

Measures approx. 23cm diameter x 6cm tall

Finished with a blend of natural plant oils and waxes that retain the natural colour of the wood as it came from the tree.
