The spalting process is arrested before any structural integrity is lost, leaving timber that is fully workable and sound, but with a character and figure that is entirely its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis piece displays \u003cstrong\u003elight spalting\u003c\/strong\u003e — subtle zone lines and gentle colour variation that add interest without overwhelming the natural warmth of the Beech. It works well with sharp tools, finishes smoothly, and responds beautifully to oils and clear lacquers that allow the natural figure to shine through.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecies Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecies:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fagus sylvatica\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Spalted Beech \/ European Beech\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Europe \/ UK\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pale cream to warm tan with distinctive black zone lines and spalting figure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJanka Hardness:\u003c\/strong\u003e ~1,300 lbf (~5,780 N)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDensity:\u003c\/strong\u003e ~720 kg\/m³\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDurability:\u003c\/strong\u003e Low — Class 5 (best used indoors)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWorkability:\u003c\/strong\u003e Good — works well with sharp tools; finishes to a smooth, attractive surface.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThis Piece\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e SPB01\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1010 x 295 x 22mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5.7kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Planed Faces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpalting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Light — subtle zone lines and gentle colour variation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePhotos:\u003c\/strong\u003e Images show the actual piece you will receive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eIdeal for furniture, turning, decorative panels, and any project where a naturally figured, characterful British hardwood with unique patterning is called for.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Wood Room","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58218437640537,"sku":"SPB01","price":18.2,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1044\/1110\/3577\/files\/18B67404-3D9E-4F91-BC81-A2A92BA0B7C4.jpg?v=1780672103","url":"https:\/\/woodroom.co.uk\/products\/spalted-beech-spb01-1010x295x22mm","provider":"The Wood Room","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
