One English Spalted Beech wood turning bowl blank

50mm & 75mm thick (+/- 5mm)


Turning spalted timber is like revealing hidden treasure - and our spalted beech is carefully selected to give you the chance to do just that.

  • Fully air dried - less stressed & splintery than kiln dried.
  • Planed on both sides - flat and true, no waste.
  • Centre marked - quicker set up and less waste when 'trued up' on the lathe.
  • Wax sealed - stabilised moisture content, store them indefinitely.

Available sizes: Please select the size from the drop down menu above.

Thickness - 50mm and 75mm (2" & 3") +/- 5mm

Diameter - up to 455mm (18")

Of course, the spalted patterns are always going to be different in every piece and thats what makes each one of these blanks a joy to work on. We ensure that every piece has some interesting figuring. Some blanks may contain small areas of softer wood as is normal for spalted timber.

The term 'spalting' covers a wide range of characteristics arising from fungal attack of the timber during the early stages of decay. The decay is halted when the timber is dried to a level at which there is insufficient moisture in the wood to enable the fungi to live.

We have photographed a selection of blanks to give an indication of the likely level and types of spalting within the blanks on offer. The pictures show representative samples.

Prices are for one blank - the pictures show representative samples.


We have other species of turning blanks available so please see our 'other items' for those and for more turning blanks.
