spalted wood pens

spalted wood pens
Spalted woods are a wood workers' bonus surprise... you never know when you will encounter those fine black veins.

...spalting is when wood has fallen to the ground… and opposing clans of mushroom families try to claim the wood as their food source… they set up war zones… depositing these fine black lines of spores that stop the opposing gang from claiming any turf.
You get these wonderful patterns formed in among the grain of the wood… if you can find and harvest the wood before the mushrooms turn it to soft punk pulp.

These are completely inert and sealed at this point… no allergy issues.
