TEXAS PECAN WOOD
Types of Wood Spalted Pecan Texas Pecan Wood

SPALTED PECAN

Comes from native old-growth Southern pecan trees that have died from natural causes, some living up to 400-years-old. The “spalting” that occurs during the dying process is what creates such beautiful and unique characteristics.

Colors range from blonde to gray in the sapwood to dark reddish browns in the heartwood. Ink-like black and brown lines swirl throughout. The burling, open knots, mineral streaking, even the wormholes enhance this exotic looking wood.
