Interesting Facts

Wood knots are formed when a tree branch grows inside another branch or the main trunk, creating a dense, circular pattern that remains visible in the wood grain.

Weathered wood often develops a darker patina over time due to oxidation and exposure to the elements, enhancing its natural beauty and durability.

The grain pattern in wood is determined by the growth rings of the tree, which can vary widely depending on the species and environmental conditions during growth.
