Spalting is simply a fungal discoloration of wood, and can be found on a wide range of wood species and genera. It is found in wood that has begun initial stages of decay, and is then subsequently dried (preventing further decay). The partial decay, called spalting, can give the wood dark contrasting lines and streaks where fungus has begun to attack the wood.

Overall good workability; it machines well, and glues, finishes, and turns well.

Note: Images are indicative of stock held but variations in appearance and grain will be frequent
