Hi, this is a slab of Camphor Laurel from the Hunter Valley. It's a fallen tree that has been lying on a farm for quite a while, and the guys I get it from, they get it and they'll slab it. So it's one piece; the whole slab is just one piece. It's around about three meters long by about 1100 wide by about four centimeters thick.
It's a beautiful piece. At the moment, it's just in its raw state. We haven't put any wax or sealers or anything, but if it's going to be used as a dining table, we would seal it. And then the colors will really jump out at you. These browns will come up really, really dark, and it's got a lot of character on it. So that's what it is - it's a rescued piece of timber, a fallen piece on a farm in the Hunter Valley, and it's come all the way to us.
There are some butterfly joints there, just for a little bit of a feature.
It's just so nice to touch. You'll be having dinner and you'll be rubbing your hands on it. That's what you'll be doing.
