Stabilized off cut and spalted beech handle - Natural - Made in France

Scientific name: Fagus sylvatica

Origin: Temperate forests of Europe (natural) / France (production)

Colour: Golden beige (natural)

Comments: The so-called "heated wood" refers to a disease (often a fungus) that the wood suffered during its growth. The wood becomes mechanically less efficient but with a magnificent design. Stabilization addresses this mechanical problem. A standing wood is cut perpendicular to the wood wire.

Since 2020 we have been offering a new, more efficient stabilization. This new recipe is odourless, with a better impregnation rate and always the same quality in homogeneity wood/resin.

Stabilizing a material literally means making it more stable, one could say in most cases that this operation consists of densifying it, using a resin. By a process that we keep secret we give heart a resin and/or pigments of color.

We thus obtain a more homogeneous and often more aesthetic material because the resin (and/or pigments) highlights the drawings of the stabilized part.

In addition to aesthetic aspects, this process makes it possible to make usable materials which had only weak mechanical qualities. Thus a wood "heated" or heavily damaged regains a nobility.
