All of our patio furniture products are made from natural Western Red Cedar with non-staining hardware. Western Red Cedar is lightweight, dimensionally stable, and naturally resistant to splitting, cupping, and warping. We choose to use Western Red Cedar over treated lumber, as the treated lumber contains arsenic and other known carcinogenic chemicals as preservatives. Western Red Cedar gives our patio furniture strength, beauty & rot resistance to the elements.
Each piece is ready for staining, clear finish or simply leave natural. An oil finish or clear varnish with UV light protection will bring out the beauty of the grain and a bit of red tinge in the wood. If the Western Red Cedar is left natural, it will weather to an unpretentious gray.
Are you thinking about a finish? A very traditional rustic look can be done with polyurethane with UV light protection. This will slightly darken the wood while bringing out a bit of red tinge found in the grain. An alternative finish is an opaque stain, which looks like paint, but doesn’t chip or peel as can happen with paint. You should apply a finish that will waterproof the wood, and prevent water spots & stains from ruining the look of the wood. Please consult your local paint expert, as there are always new products coming onto the market.
OPTIONAL natural tone stain finish is available for a nominal fee.
