Description
The Sycamore tree has a hidden beauty not know by all, it's outside bark of mottled white is characteristic of the inner wood of mottled diamond and snake shin laced wood grain,but it only shows if you cut it a certain way called quarter sawn. I used to own and run a large wood shop mill and once had the opportunity to furnish furniture and all the trim need for a new cancer center that was built in Indiana. there I met one of Indiana's better know plein air painters who also owned a design gallery. He wanted a wood of special nature and character for the cancer center ,we settled on the quarter sawn wood of the magnificent sycamore tree. It doesn't grow in large abundant groves like some trees which has kept it from being so commercialize like some woods. It truly is one of the most beautiful woods In North America.
