Crotch Slabs always look great for coffee tables, small end tables, bars, and if you can find one big enough, for dining or conference tables.
The best figure on most trees is always right were any two limbs separate from the main trunk.
This is were you find gorgeous feathery figure which often times includes a little curl, burl, spalt, quilt, bark inclusions, etc...
Its always a treat when we finally see a certain crotch slab thats been laying against our back wall in a finished piece. Crotch pieces never disappoint-they always look beautiful!
Here are various crotch slabs we have here at the shop that are just begging for a unique project.
This Bocote crotch piece is much like the finished piece above.
The top is where the crotch figure will be but the rest of the piece seems to have very interesting figure as well-as you can see in the picture even though its still rough sawn.
We think this one will look especially striking since it has a solid white sap line along all the edges.
Once sanded and finished the contrast between the dark heartwood and the white natural-edged sap, combined with the crotch figure will be very nice.
Here is a small Pink Ivory crotch slab.
If you know wood, you probably know Pink Ivory is one of the most sought after woods in existence.
So you can imagine how rare a slab like this is.
This one would make a great side table.
Match it up with some kind of ebony stand and you have a great looking table made out of high end African woods.
This is a nice long cocobolo crotch Slab.
This is Jatoba from Brazil. Nice wide example how big some crotch pieces can get
This is what we mean by feathery crotch figure. 
I guess this isn't exactly a crotch piece, but I figured I'd include it anyways since it still follows roughly the same shap.
