The fences are made from only mature spruce tree trunks out of the ancient forests in the Swedish province Jämtlands Län. These spruce trees are slow-grown, which you can tell by the number of rings which are very close to each other, and thereby provide compact, very strong tree trunks. We use from 80 to 120 year old tree trunks, often more than 100 year old. This beautiful spruce wood is of very high quality, making it resistant to rot.
