Frequently asked questions about slabs
What is a slab?
A slab is made by cutting a tree all the way through. (The traditional term for this: “en boule”.) This type of cut preserves the natural edge of the tree and yields several thick slices. Each one of these slics is a slab.
What does live edge mean?
The uncut edge of the tree is called a live edge. When a slab is cut, the outer edge retains its natural tree shape and gives it a natural, flowing aesthetic.
What are live edge wood slabs used for?
Live edge wood slabs are popular for tabletops, countertops, desks, shelves, headboards, sliding doors, and other applications.
