A jet-black table you may read as stone or steel or stained. But look closely. Touch it. It is wood. You can see the grain and feel the warmth of Ancient Red Gum. Ancient Red Gum is Red Gum buried over 10,000 years ago, when the Snowy Mountains shed their ice and snow and flooded the Basin. During the flood, the tree is knocked over and buried. Over thousands of years, It turns from blood- red to almost completely black.
