Plate made from Flamed Beech

Size - D 21.5cm x H 2.5cm 

Finish - Tung Oil and Waxes

Sourced from a large tree which was felled in 2020 in our woodland. The tree was unfortunately on the decline and had to be taken down for safety reasons. When trees are taken down this way I feel compelled to really make the most of the wood.

This piece has been quarter sawn so you can see fine flecks throughout called medullary rays. It’s also flamed which means it has been stained a darker red colour. This is a natural process that happens when a fungus gets inside the wood whilst still alive and stains the wood. 

The last image shows a vessel in the same wood and finish which could make a good pairing. The vessel will be put next door to this listing.

For use as decoration or display but could handle light food use. 

N.B. Tung Oil comes from a nut so please be aware if you have a nut allergy.
