Teak Burl Bottle Stopper Blank
Turn a truly exceptional bottle stopper with this Teak Burl blank — a material that combines the legendary durability and natural oils of Teak with the wild, swirling figure that only burl wood can produce. Teak Burl is a rare and characterful timber, with dense, interlocked grain, rich golden-brown tones and the kind of unpredictable, eye-catching figure that makes every finished piece completely unique.
Supplied at approximately 63 × 40 × 40mm, each blank is a practical and generous starting size for the lathe, with enough material to turn a beautifully proportioned bottle stopper with room to shape and refine to your own design.
