The wood you see is a tree I cut down myself and milled it into slabs. The piece you see is from the upper limbs bookmatched to get the desired effect of two leafs. If you look on our web site arthousestudiosa.com you'll see the trunk pieces I made into a conference table bookmatched with a walnut border. Their will never be another tree like this one because it was guirlded or killed six months before I cut it and had eye burls all over it meaning the grain was quilted.If you really want some i can provide, just tell me what kind of table you are making.Dan

Where can you get the tabletop wood at a reasonable price?
We're fixing up an old lodge in Maine and I'd love a wood slab table!
Great work!
