LATIN: ACER MACROPHYLLUM ORIGIN: NORTH AMERICA
Western maple burl, native to the Pacific Northwest of North America, is a unique hardwood prized for its intricate burl figure featuring swirling, eye-like patterns. Its color ranges from pale cream to light reddish-brown, often with darker accents that enhance the striking burl effect. The wood's fine texture and irregular grain can make it challenging to machine, but it sands and polishes beautifully, resulting in a smooth, glossy finish. Western maple burl is highly sought after for decorative woodworking projects, including high-end furniture, veneers, turned items, bowls, knife handles, pens, and guitar tops, offering woodworkers a combination of beauty and versatility.
