Stabilized maple burl bottle stopper blank amber 1-1/2 x 1-1/2 x 2-1/2

Stabilized and dyed maple burl bottle stopper blank.  Approximate blank size 1-1/2" square by 2-1/2" long.

Stabilization refers to impregnating soft wood with resin, creating a blank that is no longer weak. Burl is a rare, abnormal growth on a tree that has beautiful swirling figure and eyes and is often used in high end furniture. Some colour variability is to be expected - this is because different blanks have different densities that will affect how the wood absorbs resin and dye. We do not offer refunds for colour variability within the blank or other slight internal imperfections.

The blank in the picture has been sanded to show the figuring. Your blanks will be selected at random. The blank in the photograph is representative only.
