When I first saw this Ambrosia Maple base, custom designed by Mr. Bobby Williams, Williams Family Mill, I gasped in delight!  I saw mountains and tall pines reaching ever  skyward as they shimmered in an alpine lake reflection.  I knew it would become an incredible original.  It was that first impression that inspired me to create a pine needle motif of four graduated widths of cane and a border of Floridian pine needles edged by a wrapped rim.
Ambrosia Maple of North America is known for its satiny ribbon and multi-colored grain caused by the Ambrosia beetle burrowing in and leaving a fungus.  While it produces beautiful gray, russet and brown tones, it does not harm the integrity of the wood.  No two are ever alike.  This one of a kind can be displayed flat or angled on a stand to great advantage.   Finished with a light shellac.
