Framed chestnut burrs

Burr wood is one of the most prized pieces in the furniture making business for its amazing texture and character. You can get lost staring into the grain patterns, this particular one looks like a rising wave, ready to break (but I am a surfer so I probably thing of waves more than the average person).

This beautiful Irish chestnut burr was bookmatched into a pair of boards, providing a mirror image of the grain pattern within. You will be able to spot a number of features such as splits and knots in the same place on each burr. They look stunning as a pair but are stil impactful on their own 

The frame was hand made from Irish oak from Co. Wicklow.  The fames was joined with a traditional bridle joint in each corner to add to the technical quality of the piece. This is a joint I use commonly in my bespoke furniture work and it felt right to be able to incorporate it in the frame
