Voided Wood Cookie Slab for Resin – Organic C Form (GS2602014)
GS2602014 is the largest cookie in this harvest by both length and weight, an organic C-shaped form built around multiple internal voids where the grain curves and flows around each cavity rather than running straight. A heavier, denser base contrasts against more open, lighter sections higher up the piece. This one also carries some light surface checking, with the bark holding on but starting to pull away slightly at the edges. Recovered from Edenvale, Gauteng, 3 February 2026. Field seasoned, MC confirmed at 10–12% on a pin meter reading taken on a sanded surface, 1 March 2026. One piece. Exact item shown.
Specimen Characteristics — GS2602014
This specimen (GS2602014) represents a transverse section from the GS2602 harvest defined by multiple internal void zones. These voids interrupt radial grain patterns, forcing directional flow and creating density variation between the heavier base and more open upper sections.
Visual Character
This slab is defined by its expansive C-shaped structure and layered void system.
- Organic C-shaped silhouette with strong directional flow
- Multiple internal voids forming layered negative space
- Grain adapting and flowing around cavity structures
- Natural inclusions creating internal contrast zones
- Live-edge perimeter with rugged bark texture
These are natural characteristics of the wood, not defects.

Not recommended for structural applications.
Working With Root-Derived Timber
Transverse slices with multiple voids require stabilisation, particularly where grain direction shifts around cavities and density variation is present.
