Wood types in focus: Rare and noble wood

The choice of material is crucial for the quality and appearance of handmade products. At Wood and Form, we place particular emphasis on rare and noble wood, which impresses not only with its beauty, but also with its durability and uniqueness.

Rare and noble wood: unique properties and origin

Rare and noble wood is characterized by its special properties. It often comes from slow-growing trees that thrive in special climatic conditions. These woods are denser, more resilient and have an exceptional grain. The origin of these woods ranges from the tropical rainforests to the cool forests of North America, which underlines their uniqueness and rarity.

The advantages of rare and noble wood in handmade products

The use of rare and noble wood in handmade products brings many advantages. These woods are not only robust and durable, but also give each piece an exclusive touch. Their natural beauty and individual grains make each product unique. Rare and noble wood ensures that handmade salt and pepper mills are not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing.

Sustainability and rare and noble wood: A responsible approach

When selecting rare and noble wood, sustainability is an important factor. At Wood and Form, we ensure that our wood comes from responsibly managed forests. Certificates and sustainable forestry practices guarantee that the use of rare and noble wood has no negative impact on the environment. This responsible approach enables us to create exclusive products that are both ecologically and aesthetically valuable.

The use of burls: Unique grains and wild beauty

A special highlight among rare and noble woods are burls. These are caused by irregular growth of the tree and are characterized by their particularly wild and unique grain. Burls are extremely rare and make every handmade piece a true work of art. The extraordinary texture and striking pattern of these woods give our salt and pepper mills a distinctive aesthetic.

Studded woods: Natural works of art through fungal mycelium

Studded woods are another fascinating example of rare and noble wood. These are created by the action of fungal mycelium, which discolors and marks the wood in a special way. The fungal infestation creates breathtaking patterns and shades of color that make each piece unique. Studded wood is not only valued for its optical properties, but also for the story it tells. Our handmade products made of studded wood are true natural works of art that bring a piece of nature from the workshop to the kitchen.

Caring for rare and noble wood: How to preserve its beauty

Proper care of rare and noble wood is crucial to preserving its beauty and longevity. Regular oiling and waxing protects the wood from moisture and preserves its natural grain. Rare and noble wood should also be protected from extreme temperature fluctuations and direct sunlight. With the right care, your handmade salt and pepper mill made of rare and precious wood will remain an eye-catcher in your kitchen for many years.

Rare and precious wood plays a central role in the production of our exclusive products. It gives each salt and pepper mill a unique beauty and durability that is appreciated both in the workshop and in the kitchen.
