Definition
Twisted, knotted, and rough in appearance; especially describing trees or wood with gnarled texture and shape.
Etymology
From the verb 'gnarl,' the '-ed' past participle ending creating an adjective describing something that has become twisted and gnarled over time.
Kelly Says
Artists and sculptors love gnarled wood because the natural twists and knots create unique, organic patterns that no chisel could replicate—nature's abstract art that took decades to create.
