The Brown Mallee Burl (Eucalyptus dumosa, E. viridis) heartwood is generally medium brown, sometimes with an orange cast. Pale yellow to gray sapwood is sharply demarcated from heartwood. Mallee trees are scrubland vegetation that are common in many parts of Australia in dozens of varieties. The trees are prolific producers of burl growths that can be harvested without cutting down the tree, which is why you normally see Australian burls in cap form.
- Excellent for turning or carving one-of-a-kind bowls
- Due to the nature of wood movement, shrinkage and expansion are possible
- Vibrant color mixed with burl eyes and unique grain patterns
Wood is a product of nature, and as such, no two pieces are alike to start with, while the same wood growing in different locales can vary greatly even though it is the exact same species.
