Normally Beech is a pale cream colour, but the spalting creates an amazing kaleidoscope of colours and patterns ranging from white to dark black lines. This wood looks great as an accent wood - a little bit goes a long way! Working with spalted wood can be a challenge. There are variable densities to contend with so be sure to keep that in mind while sanding.
You can expect your boards to be anything from a mixture of white lines to striking black streaks.

Like all the wood, thought the purple heart was pale, just can't afford much at the prices
I’m really pleased with the piece I received. It was perfectly milled, dead flat and had beautiful spalting throughout so I was able to use 100% of the lumber I was sent. Thanks KJP!
I use this wood for knife handles. Only the half of it was fully spalted. With a board of that size, i can make 20 blocks for handles, but with this spalted beech, I was only able to do 8 fully spalted blocks.
That being said, the good half was perfect. It's really nice for dye stabilizing.
It would have been a 5 stars review if it was spalted all the way.
The wenge, walnut, mohagony and maple were all perfect as expected.
This was the first time I purchased a bowl blank from KJP Select Hardwoods. I am very pleased with the service and the product. I will be purchasing more in the future.
Live Edge Charcuterie Boards - Sappy Walnut
The item was prepared exactly as requested in a timely manner. I asked for multiple sheets of plywood to be cut in half, with the grain. KJP cut each of the boards into two identical pieces. I was notified once the order was complete. I arrived at the facility without notification, and the items were ready to put in my car. I'm always impressed with the quality of service from the people working at KJP. I am a repeat customer, and I don't foresee that changing anyone soon.
