Beautiful example of Burr English Oak with Natural Bark Edge.
(approx size 18cm dia. x 12cm High)
Found in Western Australia, Banksia Grandis a bush or small tree, which attains a height of commonly 5-10m. It grows as an under story tree within Jarrah forests. Discovered by Sir Joseph Banks who travelled with Captain Cook on his discovery of Australia in 1770. The fruit produced by this tree is known as the Banksia nut. There are over 70 species of Banksia but only one produces fruit large enough to be of any commercial value for turning. The fruit may be 4 to 9 inches long with an average size of 6 inches. The nuts must be picked from the tree when mature and this can take several years. The nuts are hard and solid, with seedpods running from the outside, towards the centre core.
