| Spalted water oak-- the black lines are the spalted parts. |
She had our friend Logan build it custom. The wood is from a spalted water oak cut down near the Heights. This guy Logan knows works with developers/builders who need to clear lots for new construction. Instead of paying a trash service to haul off the trees, the guy takes them for free then cuts them up and sells them to carpenters. How cool and local and green.
Spalted wood means a fungus attacked it. It sounds bad, but it causes really pretty lines. I couldn't be happier. Now I want Logan to make all my furniture.
