Spotlight on Sycamore slabs
Sycamore wood is light to medium-brown in colour, with a finely textured and subtle grain pattern. As a hardwood, it will withstand heavy use and is naturally resistance to decay.
Practical uses for sycamore live edge slabs
Sycamore live edge slabs can be used to create a variety of practical and functional wooden items. Sycamore slabs make beautiful table tops for dining tables, coffee tables, end tables, and desks. The timber can also be fashioned into storage shelves, sturdy benches and stylish headboards.
Sycamore live edge slabs can be used as countertops in kitchens, bathrooms, or utility rooms, as bar tops in home bars, restaurants, or entertainment areas and to create stunning kitchen islands. The live edge adds visual interest, warmth and character to the piece, while the durable sycamore wood provides a functional and long-lasting surface for everyday use.


Decorative uses for spalted sycamore wood
Spalted sycamore wood has a unique and visually striking appearance. With its contrasting colours, created by the spalting process, it is perfect for creating decorative items. These include turned vases and bowls, carved decorative boxes, containers and trays. It can also be crafted into unique picture frames, clocks, candle holders, decorative wall art, sculptures, figurines or decorative carvings.
