Hackberry Block HYB-020 (Stabilized)

Spalted hackberry wood is a unique and visually striking material that comes from the hackberry tree (Celtis occidentalis), a deciduous tree native to North America. The term "spalted" refers to a specific type of wood that has undergone a controlled decay process, often resulting in distinctive color patterns and grain features caused by fungal growth. This process not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of the wood but also contributes to its unique character. ### Characteristics: 1. Appearance: Spalted hackberry wood is known for its remarkable and varied coloration, which can include shades of cream, light brown, yellow, and darker brown or black streaks. The spalting process often results in dramatic contrasts, with intricate patterns of lines and dots that can create a beautiful, almost abstract appearance. 2. Grain Patterns: The grain of spalted hackberry is typically straight to slightly wavy, but the spalting can introduce unique figures, such as black lines or mottled areas. T
