re: Pistachio Trivet

Thanks Ryan, Nathan, George,Tom and Ron !!
Hi Nathan, not so much in this piece, but it other pieces I bought from that dead orchard, the root stock looked just like female pistachio with the pink pistachio grain. I'm guessing the root stock was pistachio.
A few years back we scored a bit hit with  about 40 chestnut trunks that a guy at the orchard gave to us and we took them to the mill here in Michigan. He cut the trees to about 18" left above the ground and grafted Korean chestnut branches to the Asian chestnut root stock because the yield from the Korean trees was a whole lot better .
Cheers, Jim
