This is freshwater driftwood, from a lake not the sea. It is ancient bogwood from a remote part of northern Scotland.

This piece and others like it, have spent countless years preserved under peatbog, ...

Rivers wash it into the lakes and winter storms give it its smooth finish.

pieces that I collect from the shore have often been bleached by sun and wind to a pale silver.

These pieces have not been treated with anything, but have taken several months to dry thoroughly....

Im told the color can be preserved with wax, but have not tried this myself.

This piece is a very beautiful, huge, sunbleached silver treestump.. .. It measures 31 cms ..
Thanks for looking...
Please look at my other piecesThank you
