Buckeye burl refers to the burl wood harvested from the buckeye tree (Aesculus spp.), primarily the California buckeye (Aesculus californica) and the Ohio buckeye (Aesculus glabra). Burls are abnormal growths on the tree, resulting in unique and highly figured wood.

Buckeye burl is prized for its intricate patterns and beautiful colors. It typically has a combination of swirling grain, knots, and small eyes that create a captivating and three-dimensional appearance. The colors of buckeye burl can vary widely, ranging from light tan and golden hues to darker shades of brown and reddish tones.

The unique and striking appearance of buckeye burl makes it a popular choice for woodworking projects that require decorative or artistic elements. It is often used for crafting high-end furniture, turned objects such as bowls and vases, knife handles, and other small specialty items.

In addition to its aesthetic qualities, buckeye burl is also valued for its workability. It is relatively easy to work with using both hand and power tools, and it takes finishes well. However, due to its irregular grain pattern and occasional voids, some extra care may be needed to achieve a smooth and even surface.

As with other burl woods, buckeye burl is not as readily available as regular lumber. It is often limited in supply and can be more expensive compared to other hardwoods. Its unique appearance and scarcity contribute to its desirability among woodworkers, artisans, and collectors.
