This is the charring of the wood's surface with a torch to seal the pores and creates a resistance to bugs, water and.....fire.....oddly enough. This leaves the wood very dark and can be brushed and finished with oils - clear or pigmented to give it a custom color mixed with the dark elements left behind from the charring. Truly a stunning highlight of any space.
