COOLIBAH

Eucalyptus spp.
An Australian wood. There are at least half a dozen eucalyptus species that have this common name and give that there are approximately 6,000,000 different species of ecualypus available in Austrailia, I'm not even going to TRY to distinguish them.

I note that all of these pics are of burls but I have no idea whether there is lumber associated with any of the various species.

burls --- some of these, and perhaps all of them, are coated with wax or other finishing agent.

although identified where it was posted as a coolibah burl, it looks to me as though this might be a redwood burl
