Spalted Maple looks beautiful on its own. This red spalted maple bottle stopper simply looks gorgeous. The spalting comes from the natural break down of a tree. This makes the wood very soft. One of the ways to help strengthen it to use is by stabilizing it with resin. The red resin used make gives this a deep red color and helps bring out some different figure in the grain. This would look good topping any bottle!
The silicone stopper is great for short term storage of wine is and removable for cleaning or replacement.
