• Bog wood, is wood from trees that have been buried in peat bogs and preserved from decay for thousands of years.
• The wood is stained over time by tannins dissolved in the acidic water.
• Bog wood is air dried for anything from 12-24 months.
• Irish bog wood may come from any native tree species naturally growing in or near bogs such as Oak, Pine or Yew.

The bog wood we use is made from parts of trees - particularly stumps that have been uncovered usually when draining or extracting peat from bogs. Often in boggy land the bog wood also rises to the surface, and is then removed.
Around 4000BC the bogs of Ireland spread and trees at the edges of the bogs were covered with water and eventually formed part of the bog.
The bog wood was preserved by the acidic and anaerobic (no oxygen) bog waters which prevented the wood from decaying normally. Bogs are noted for their preservation properties and many interesting artifacts have been unearthed from Irish bogs over the years.
The bog wood we use has been air dried for at least 12 months before it is cut into plaques and finished.
