Here’s another brain-looking burl from the beach. I am only passingly thinking this is Taiwan Phoebe. I really have no other guesses. The wood is slightly yellow-golden with some streaks of red and spalting. Lots of color and figure going on! On the base, there was a small patch of punky wood I mostly worked out and sealed with CA glue. There is one large crack as shown in the pictures that seems to run into about 1/8 of the burl along the sides. A few small pin holes, but no activity from bugs present. Size is basically 18x20x22cm. I’d like 30$ plus shipping for this one. Sealed with polyurethane in pics.

I love how Byron gets these gorgeous pieces of wood washing up on shore, but when I'm at the Jersey shore all i see in the ocean is dead fish and McDonald's fry containers 😑

Just to rub some salt in the wound, I literally just found this bad boy this afternoon beneath the cliff face I posted before. I don’t know how it is coming with me this Saturday…but IT’S COMING WITH ME THIS SATURDAY, DANG IT!!

We have the mountains in Austria but I do miss the ocean. I miss the breeze and the long wide view.
