From Tree To Treasure

In the heart of the Nordic forests lies a treasure unlike any other – the Masur (or curly) birch. Known as a “wooden marble” or the “Viking tree”, this species is a symbol of the intrinsic value of Nordic nature.

From the courts of European aristocracy, to Russian Tsars, to woodworking workshops of today, curly birch has been prized throughout centuries for its curling pattern. In 1917, its fire-like grain pattern even inspired Peter Carl Fabergé to create the Karelian Egg (Birch Egg), the only Fabergé egg to use an organic substance as its main structural component.

But what makes curly birch truly remarkable is its origin. As the ordinary silver birch transforms into the exquisite Masur birch, it undergoes a metamorphosis that elevates it to one of the world’s most rare and cherished materials. Thriving under specific conditions of ample light and fertile soil, curly birch demands meticulous care and attention so that its pattern can develop. However, due to its irregular trunk shape and limited usable material, harvesting and processing curly birch is a labor-intensive job, often requiring manual techniques to preserve its integrity.

Despite the challenges, the allure of curly birch persists. As craftsmen continue to cherish and preserve this extraordinary species, the legacy of curly birch remains a testament to the beauty found within the ordinary.
