BLACKBUTT LIGHTNING STRIKE
A Remarkable Story of Nature & Craftsmanship
Artist: Bim Morton
Timber: Australian Blackbutt
Price: $10,500
Struck by Lightning. Reborn as Art.
Every extraordinary piece of furniture has a story, but few begin with the power of a lightning strike.
This magnificent Blackbutt dining table was created from a tree struck by lightning in a paddock behind Williar. Deemed unsafe, the tree was carefully felled and milled, revealing an extraordinary opportunity to preserve its natural beauty.
Just four remarkable trunk rounds were recovered from the stump, making this an exceptionally rare piece of Australian timber.
Renowned craftsman Bim Morton has transformed one of these impressive rounds into a stunning statement table, preserving its magnificent natural edges, rich golden tones and distinctive grain.
The sculptural timber base complements the organic tabletop, creating a beautiful balance between nature and contemporary Australian craftsmanship.
More than a dining table, this is a piece of Australian history — shaped by nature, preserved through craftsmanship and destined to become a family heirloom.
$10,500 | One-of-a-kind statement piece
