Mulberry Tree-table

 

In 1991 I planted a mulberry tree in our new garden in Norfolk. Decades later some branches were badly bent over in a gale, so I had to trimmed them. The colour of the wood was intreguing, a slightly greeny golden core with pale sap wood so I put them aside to season and wondered what in the future I would do with them. Then more recently I managed to obtain some planked mulberry from the Dorset woodfair I go to each year, and the problem was solved. I hope you like the results!
