pege/mrlje od sržnih zraka
Explanation:
pege/mrlje od sržnih zraka

Sržni zraci se protežu kroz deblo radijalno od srži do kore, a posle sečenja na furniru ostaju pege (mrlje).

QUARTERSAWN - The annual growth rings form an angle of 45 Degrees - 90 Degrees with the surface of the piece. In Quartersawed strips the medullary rays or pith rays in ring porous woods are exposed as flecks that are reflective and produce a distinctive grain pattern.
FLECKS - The wide irregular conspicuous figure in Quartersawn oak flooring. (Also, See Rays, Wood)
MEDULLARY RAYS - Strips of cells extending radically within a tree and varying in height from a few cells in some species to four or more inches in oak. The rays serve primarily to store food and transport it horizontally in the tree. On quartersawn oak, the rays form a conspicuous figure, sometimes referred to as Flecks.
