Brown Oak Turning Blank Quarter Sawn
Brown Oak (Quercus robur)
Brown Oak is technically not a distinct species of oak, but rather refers to oak (almost always English or another European species) that has been infected with a fungus. This fungus (Fistulina hepatica) has the effect of turning the wood a deep brown colour. Once the wood has been cut and dried, the fungus dies, leaving a rich golden brown timber.
Quarter sawn surface displays prominent medullary ray patterns.
Our turning blanks are carefully selected by our expert staff. The quality control inspection ensures our blanks are split and shake free. With a range of shapes and sizes, we are sure you will find something to stimulate your creativity and inspire your next project.
NOTE: The image shown is indicative of the items we have in stock but as this is a natural product there will be variations from piece to piece.
