Bouls Scots Pine 30 mm

A striking feature of the pine is the irregular course of the annual rings, which leads to unusual patterns in the wood. The colouring is reddish yellow and shows a pronounced contrast between the early and late wood in an expressive pattern. The darker, reddish-brown late wood creates distinctive veins on the tangential surfaces and strong stripes on the radial surfaces.
