burl wood
knoesthout


Explanation:
1) Burlwood als kenmerk kan bij veel houtsoorten voorkomen: "Burl wood is known as a rare, high-quality and very attractive material. Its quality depends on an age and class of a tree. The most popular are redwood, maple, walnut, African tree and Asian burl".
2) XKR-fineer
Het hoogwaardige wortelnotenfineer voor de XKR komt niet van de stronk, maar van de groeisels aan de basis van 75 jaar oude Amerikaanse notenbomen. Dat knoesthout met het rijkelijke, opvallende patroon wordt uitgegraven, vlak gemaakt en naar Engeland verscheept waar het in fijn fineer gesneden wordt. De vaklui van Jaguar zoeken het fineerhout van dezelfde knoest voor het dashboard en de sierstrips op de deuren.
