<Features>
A wood representative of Kiso, which is counted as the top of the five Kiso trees. The world’s best coniferous wood.
The annual rings are somewhat indistinct and pale yellowish brown to pale pink in color. The wood has a fine grain and a good fragrance.
It has been used as a building material since ancient times because it remains strong for hundreds of years even after being felled, and has a high preservability. It is used in many shrines and temples such as Horyuji Temple.
Among them, Kiso cypress is especially used for the shrine of Ise Grand Shrine, which is rebuilt every 20 years (Shikinen Sengu), and is considered to be the best building material.
<Producing area>
A species unique to Japan, distributed from central Honshu through Shikoku and Kyushu to Yakushima.
<Application>
It is mainly used for high-end construction, and is also used for bathtubs due to its unique fragrance and water resistance.
In addition, Kiso cypress hats are made by thinly shaving and weaving them into wickerwork, and because of their lightness and moderate hardness, they are used in a wide range of applications, from buildings to small items such as chopsticks. It is also used in Horyuji Temple, the world’s oldest wooden building, as well as numerous shrines and temples.
