Ancient Kauri or Swamp Kauri refers to prehistoric Kauri forests, buried and preserved in peat swamp up to 50,000 years ago in New Zealand’s North Island by an unexplained act of nature at the end of the last Ice Age. The kauri trees have survived the centuries underground, sealed in a chemically balanced environment that has preserved the Kauri timber in perfect condition. The Kauri trees grew for nearly 2000 years before they were buried. Some have a girth of around 40 feet, and a total height of nearly 200 feet. Ancient Kauri wood is the oldest workable wood available in the world.

Ancient Kauri wood is extremely attractive and beautiful. The grain and tones of the Kauri wood has an extraordinary shimmering iridescence. The glow of Ancient Kauri adds to its beauty and illustrates that Ancient Kauri is a special, gorgeous timber.
