It is believed Ironwood trees are not native to Terra Viejo and were brought here by the elves. Elves are fiercely protective of ironwood groves and with access to the groves and secrets of working with ironwood being aggressively restricted
Items made of ironwood have the same properties as steel (including not burning easily).
