I'm not 100% sure what type of wood it is, but it's lightweight, and has contrasting heart and sap wood, but the most interesting and rare feature is the lighter wood that could possibly be scarring, that looks like a horse's hoof. Very cool!
My Cottage Mills® are made from branches that have naturally fallen, mostly due to wind storms. As they lay on the ground, sometimes for years, the weather, sunlight, and moisture work their magic. The end result is a beautiful natural looking mill.
All have an adjustable ceramic CrushGrind® mechanism, with a 25 year guarantee.
