Wood which has been buried and pressured under the soil for thousands of years due to volcanic activity, rapid climatic change, and mud flood. Even if it is almost stoned, the grain and the structure is as it’s alive. It has time-slipped with the underground water including silicate and mineral matter such as iron. It is first flexible but as it oxidizes, it gradually stiffens. Buried wood is special for it’s strength to water and anti-vermin.
