Manzanita burl (Arbutus menziesii), also American strawberry tree, is an evergreen deciduous tree native to North America with a growth height between 7 and 40m. It may remain shrubby under certain circumstances.
The wood has a light sapwood and is light brown to reddish at the heart. Veneers for furniture are mainly made from the long straight trunks, otherwise the wood is well suited for woodturning and, because it is odourless, for vessels intended for food storage.
Dimensions: approx. 125 x 40 x 30 mm

Finely grained wood may contain imperfections such as open knots, bark inclusions, or cracks that are typical of the species. These flaws come from the way the tree has grown and are completely natural. They can usually be filled with low-viscosity cyanoacrylate (super glue) and wood dust.
