Veneer Oak Burl 0.60 mm
The oak burl shows a fascinating lively veneer pattern. The burls are arranged in strikingly distinct groups. As they have a darker brown colouring, they stand out clearly against the light brown ground colour. The ring-shaped structures of the annual rings are faintly visible between these burls.

Occurrence
The oak is found almost all over Europe, namely in Norway up to the 63rd degree north latitude and in Russia up to the 57th degree north latitude, as well as in the Caucasus and in Asia Minor. Furthermore, oak can be found in the south as far as central Spain, Sicily and on Crete.
Trunk and bark
Oak reaches a height of up to 50m in favourable locations, with a diameter of up to 2m, but usually shorter and weaker. The trunk of the oak is consistently well grown, often twisted and knotless up to 15m. The bark of the oak is thick, deeply longitudinally fissured and dark grey.
Characteristics and wood colour
Coarse pores and sharply defined annual rings. Wide medullary rays appear as light shiny bands in radial section and as brown lines in tangential section in oak. The yellowish-white sapwood of oak is only narrowly developed. The heartwood of the oak is greyish yellow when fresh, later darkening to light to dark brown when exposed to air.
