Key Features of This Slab:

• Exceptional Figure: The center section features a dramatic Crotch Grain explosion, where the tree branched, creating a feathered "flame" pattern that radiates outward.

• Deep Marbling: This slab boasts the legendary "orchard marble"—an intense swirl of deep chocolate, smoky violet, and golden honey hues that Claro is famous for.

• Massive Scale: At over 8 feet long and dining-room width, this single-slab span offers a seamless, natural aesthetic that book-matched sets can’t replicate.

• Professional Seasoning: We have invested over two years in the stabilization of this wood. It was air-dried for 24 months to preserve the vibrant natural colors, followed by 8 weeks in a Vacuum Kiln. This advanced drying process ensures the wood is stress-free, sterilized, and at a stable moisture content—ready for immediate surfacing and finishing.

• Surfaced & Ready: Both faces have been precision-plane flattened. The hardest work is done, allowing you to move straight into the creative phases of your build.

Heritage & Provenance:

Ethically salvaged from California, this slab represents the pinnacle of American hardwoods. The combination of its massive size, rare crotch figure, and meticulous drying process makes it a one-of-a-kind find for a master craftsman or a discerning homeowner.
