Historic Spalted Horse Chestnut

I love the natural effects sometimes we find accidently. It gives it a unique character. Did you mark the bottom the history of this piece?

No, this was made for a member of the church congregation who placed the order nearly a year ago when I worked with the arborist who took the tree down. They know the history of the piece probably much better than I do :)
