This paper focuses on the description of Tenryu-wood in “Kenchikuyou honpousan mokuzai oyobi sekizai, daiippen; mokuzai no bu” and summarizes its characteristics. The book resulted from a comprehensive survey of domestic timbers and regarded Tenryu cedar as one of the representative timbers in Japan. In the text, some descriptions positively evaluate the quality of Tenryu cedar wood. In contrast, Tenryu cypress wood was not superior to other timbers regarding production volume and quality. However, it was traded at a higher unit price than other timbers in Shizuoka Prefecture, taking advantage of the cedar volume in circulation and its high reputation.
