This beefwood was locally sourced, salvaged, and sawn and kiln dried right here at Odd Wood Lumber - giving each piece genuine provenance and a story worth telling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeefwood is a species that rewards close attention. It’s dense and hard with a naturally warm, reddish-brown color - but the real intrigue is in the variation.
