This design was inspired by the Japanese technique of preserving wood by charring it with fire. The Shou-Sugi-Ban process involves charring the wood, cooling it, scrubbing it, and then finishing it leaving the most beautiful natural grain. For this process we choose each piece of wood carefully looking for pieces with the most surface grain. Staining the wood in these beautiful natural wood stains brings out and accentuates the unique patterns of the grain.
Each piece of the garden border is connected by galvanized wire to create a sturdy section. The borders come in a 6 foot length and include 5 galvanized stakes for you to insert in the pre-drilled holes making installation simple and easy. Each piece is made from insect and rot resistant cedar wood and have multiple coats of clear protective finish to protect them from UV rays, water, and fading. The heights and widths of each plank are between 3 1/2” - 6” high and 3 1/2” - 5 1/2” wide depending on the option you choose. Each 6ft length border has 6 planks adorned with Crystal embellishments for an extra glimmer and a little unexpected treasure hidden in your garden.
