Very few woodworkers in the world have worked it or made objects of it. It is characterized by being somewhat brittle, having numerous small knots and a wild figure pattern that give it a very distinct look among woods. It is extremely difficult to obtain, expensive and highly prized. A burl is an out growth on the root of a tree. The tree that this Thuyawood Burl came from was cut down years ago and is now being reclaimed by people digging where the trees used to be in Morocco.
