SOLD Birds Eye Maple wall street style twist ball point
Domestic birds eye maple is one of the most sought after burl woods. It is a truly exotic species, if only because of its rarity... or at least the very best, selected pieces. The wood is of course hard maple, but for reason, yet to be clearly understood, in some rare cases the tree grows little "eyes" throughout the wood. The eyes can range from 1/8" to 3/8" in diameter, and vary significantly in density from a few eyes per board to 3 or 4 eyes per square inch.

This figure exists both in the pure white sap wood and in the darker streaked heartwood, creating quite the drama. It is sought for it's beauty when polished for things like guitars, humidors, jewelry boxes, pens and many other items.
