ELM Bookmatched Set 7cm thick – tree number 1073B Natural Waney Live Edge Slab Board Kiln Dried Planed Seasoned Hardwood Wildwood Table top Worktop Bookmatched Set

A batch of 2 dozen Elm boards ranging from 5.5 to 7cm thick,  single waney edged and 125 to 175cm long, 15 to 30cms wide,  so ideal for mantel shelves but of course a hundred and one other uses.   4 of the best burred consecutive boards I have presented as 2 bookmatched sets suitable for large feature coffee tables.  The latter came from a tree off a farm near Bathgate in West Lothian which had been lying at the back of the steading for years after succumbing to the dutch elm disease –  it was so heavily burred the farmer didnt want to see it cut up for firewood and eventually he heard of me and sold it to me,  by which time it had started to go off a fair bit but the few boards I was able to preserve are lovely. There are some old woodworm holes and soft decayed areas to have to contend with as a result.

The rest of the batch are from trees from my regular Elm supplier Knockdolian estate in Ayrshire and have been seasoning for at least 3 years.  There are a handful more of same to be prepared along with some wider double waney ones in the next few weeks,  but these here are the most suitable for mantels.
