Did you know Blackbutt gets its name because the lower trunk, or "butt" of the eucalyptus tree is significantly darkened and charred by bushfires! The resulting wood i s highly prized for turning and making wooden bowls due to its clean workable grain pattern with little or no flaws. As a native Australian hardwood, it strikes a distinct balance between functional ruggedness and a calm, modern appearance
And this carefully handcrafted shallow decorative wooden bowl certainly demonstrates the inherent beauty of the Blackbutt grain.
