Highland hardwood grows at elevations above 1,500 meters, where the growing season lasts less than 90 days. The result is a cellular structure so tight that annual rings measure under 2mm. This density is what gives the material its weight, its resistance, and the surface quality that changes with use.
The grain you feel on day one is not the grain you will feel in a year.
