Gold Mallee Burl

Gold Mallee burl is an incredible species with vivid color and figure. This native Australian timber has a distinctive mix of yellow, gold, and brown heartwood with contrasting white sapwood. The wood is dense and easily yields a smooth, durable finish with light sanding. Incredible burl caps offer a natural artistic palette for any artisan. Burl squares and bowl blanks have tight figure and colors that are ideal for bowls, spindles, turned boxes, knives, and other fine articles. Burl eyes may develop incursions but are generally very small and limited to the sapwood. Be prepared to fill the incursions with minerals like Turquoise or other fine choices which can be found on our website.
