Black Box Burl is the burl wood of a tree that biologically belongs to the eucalyptus family, whose name is Eucalyptus largiflorens. It grows to a height of around 20 meters and can be recognized by its scaly bark. It grows in southern Australia, where the tree is also known as the flooded box or river box. The wood of this tree is very hard and durable, even outdoors, which is why it is used for a wide variety of indoor and outdoor applications in house construction.
The burl wood is beautiful and finely figured, and has the small longitudinal resin pockets typical of so many eucalyptus burls and is a highly prized specialty for fine craftsmanship.
