Lebanese Cedar

This is one of the true Cedars. There are more than 50 references to Lebanese Cedar in the Bible. Psalms 92:12-"The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a Cedar of Lebanon". Because of its durability the Egyptians used it for making mummy cases. Carvings of Cedar have been unearthed in ancient tombs still in excellent condition. These boards are from a tree grown as an ornamental in England. The wood has a crisp texture and a lovely, aromatic scent that is very long lasting.

This is from S.E. Asia and is also called Makamong. We cut a large burl years ago into 4" to 6" slabs.

The effects were incredible. It reminds me of an old dolomite cave complex after thousands of years of water erosion. Full of fissures and chasms, it is easy to visualize bats flying in and out or maybe a miniature version of Shelob's lair.
