Lumber Showcase - Birdseye Maple

Interested in using Birdseye Maple for your next project? The name is rather self explanatory: it comes from the small markings that resemble bird's eyes. These marking are actually caused by unfavorable growing conditions. The tree attempts to start new bud growth to get more sunlight - but due to the poor growing conditions this is aborted and the marks remain.

Birdseye Maple is great to use for instruments, furniture and other small items such as jewelry boxes. Stop in to see it for yourself!
