What is it?
This is a shorthand property which allows an author to specify 'border-top-width', 'border-right-width', 'border-bottom-width', and 'border-left-width' properties using a single property and value notation (the values are given in this order separated by spaces.) If one or more of the values are not present, the value for a missing side is taken from the opposite side that is present. If only one value is listed, it applies to all sides.
