Huon Pine Burl/Birdseye Giant Slabs
These two are an amazing sight, they are " enormous " and absolutely " unique ".
The Huon tree they came from was cut down last century, then left in the Tasmanian Wilderness. The log was recovered 30 years ago, these Slabs sawn from it, then they were stored under a pile of roofing iron, beneath a Gum tree, effectively lost and forgotten !
Re-discovered in 2019 transported to our workshop in Devonport Tasmania, we then sanded them just enough to show off the Burl and Birds Eye feature and 30 years of " patina " and aging. The photos here are taken with the slabs both wet and dry to give an indication of the grain and patterning.
They can be sanded more as they are incredibly thick and solid and would positively Glow when fully finished.
We can make them into very special Furniture, a Bar, a Boardroom Table, or an amazing Display piece in a foyer worthy of them. Or you may want to create your own piece !
They are over 3000 years old and are the largest and rarest Pair of Huon Slabs available.
Measurements are each one : 5.5 metres long x varying natural width up to 2.2 metres at their widest point x 80 mm thick
$ 24,000 each inc GST
