Vavona burl comes from the root of the coastal redwood (Sequoia sempervirens), which grows in the coastal areas of northern California and southern Oregon. The redwoods can grow up to 300 feet tall with a trunk diameter of 20 to 25 feet. The tallest living specimen is about 328 feet tall and is in Redwood National Park in northwestern California. It is the tallest tree in the world. Redwoods are also some of the oldest trees in the world, with 600 years not an uncommon age. The oldest recorded age was 2,200 years based on the rings.
The root burls can assume gigantic proportions. Digging them out is quite labor intensive which makes this burl very expensive.
The burl wood is light and relatively soft, but it is extremely durable and easy to work quite well with sharp tools.
