Swamp Kauri is a heritage timber, buried in the swamplands of Northland for up to 45,000 years. It is perfectly workable, but not the same as freshly cut living timber. It may include: • Natural cracks and gum veins • Internal tension or movement within the grain • Colour variations and prehistoric features • Unique shapes or slight bends Each piece is one-of-a-kind, and its beauty lies in its history and prehistoric character — not in modern uniformity. If you are familiar with Swamp Kauri or enjoy working with special heritage timbers, this lot will be deeply rewarding. Good luck, and thank you for appreciating this rare and ancient wood.
