Buckeye burl (Aesculus californica) is the burl wood of a tree native to California that is a close relative of the European horse chestnut. The wood of these burls is infused with a fungus with a grey-blue colour, which makes it look very interesting and like a stone, almost marble-like. The wood resembles poplar and willow wood in its properties, so it is rather light and soft, its colour can range from creamy whitish to a typical pale yellow to blue-grey anthracite. The burl wood is very finely figured, always multicoloured and with very beautiful colour gradients one of the most beautiful burl woods we have, it is very attractive through its curly and flamed figure and is mostly stabilized due to its softness.
