Burl is nature’s most dramatic woodgrain event, and Red Mallee delivers it in a palette that is uniquely, brilliantly Australian.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHarvested from the subterranean burl growths of the Red Mallee eucalypt — a multi-stemmed shrub-tree found across Australia’s semi-arid regions — these blanks are a finite, naturally occurring resource. No plantation can replicate them. Every blank is a one-of-a-kind piece, and every pen turned from one is a work of art.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpecies: Red Mallee Burl (\u003cem\u003eEucalyptus oleosa\u003c\/em\u003e)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: Australia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColour: Deep reddish-brown, burgundy, and warm amber tones\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWild burl figure — eyes, knots, and swirling grain throughout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePre-cut and lathe-ready — no prep required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with slimline, cigar, bolt action, fountain pen kits and more\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEach blank is entirely unique — no two will ever be the same\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eRed Mallee Burl requires sharp tools and care on the lathe — its irregular grain runs in every direction, so patience and light cuts are rewarded with a finish of extraordinary depth and lustre.

This is a blank for pen makers who want to create something truly unforgettable.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Arborean","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52883052200165,"sku":null,"price":6.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0811\/9726\/9221\/files\/RedMalleeBurl1.jpg?v=1789508835","url":"https:\/\/arborean.com.au\/products\/pen-turning-blanks-timber-red-mallee-burl-australia","provider":"Arborean","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
