Madrone Board Md125
0.8" x 9.5" x 27"
4.75 lbs.

This is a striking live-edge board of Pacific Madrone (Arbutus menziesii), a highly valued hardwood native to the Pacific Northwest. The wood displays the classic warm peach and rose hues of madrone heartwood, complemented by a swirling, organic grain pattern that adds movement and visual interest. One full-length live edge adds rustic charm, with bark that is well-attached and showcases classic scaly-and-smooth madrone bark textures.

The board's width ranges from 8.5" to almost 11", averaging about 9.5". It has been surfaced on top and bottom. There are surfaces blemishes from the milling/planing process that will sand off readily -- we usually start at 80 grit. It has been carefully air-dried to a stable 10–12% moisture content, making it well-suited for indoor woodworking. There are a few small knots in the board. There are several open cracks near the bark/cambium interface. You may wish to leave open or to fill with epoxy. Note -- the water splotches in some of the photos are dew from the moss, not a defect in the board. 

This board offers excellent versatility -- ideal for use as an art plaque, statement shelf, charcuterie board, or small furniture feature. It could also be resawn or cut down for a variety of other uses such as segmented turning, knife scales, or contrasting strips in cutting boards.
