GUTTA-PERCHA'S earliest appearance occurred in 1822, and by the 1940's it was being used for everything from dental appliances to whole pierces of furniture. The demand for gutta-percha was too high to be sustainable and by the end of the Victorian era the trees were harvested nearly to extinction.
