Design and Features:
The swing features a unique 12-inch fold-down console centered between the seating area, equipped with two drink holders.
This smart design allows users to enjoy a beverage while lounging and conveniently folds away when not needed.
The entire structure is crafted to ensure maximum comfort, featuring a signature rolled design and contoured seating that cradles the body.
Materials and Durability:
Constructed entirely from cypress wood, known as ‘The Eternal Wood’, our swing is designed to withstand the elements.
Cypress contains cypressene, a natural preservative oil that provides inherent resistance to insects and decay.
Its dense grain minimizes checking and warping, making it ideal for outdoor use.
The hardware is galvanized and zinc-plated, ensuring that each component holds up against corrosion and wear.
Assembly and Maintenance:
It does not use any staples, only zinc-plated screws and galvanized bolts to enhance its durability.
While cypress can be left natural due to its inherent properties, the option to stain or seal the wood allows for customization to suit any style preference.
For those opting to paint, a high-quality exterior oil-based primer followed by a topcoat of exterior paint is recommended.
For a natural finish, an annual application of an oil-based stain or wood preservative will maintain its pristine condition.
Why Choose Cypress:
Cypress is renowned for its longevity and ability to hold paint longer than many other woods.
Its resistance to weather, combined with its aesthetic qualities, makes it a superior choice for outdoor furniture.
The swing’s design not only offers functionality and comfort but also takes advantage of cypress’s excellent properties to provide a durable, weather-resistant, and beautiful addition to any outdoor space.
Conclusion:
The cypress lumber swing is more than just a seating option; it’s a blend of art and utility.
Designed for both comfort and style, it incorporates a fold-down console that adds a touch of luxury and convenience, making it the perfect outdoor accessory for those who appreciate durability without compromising on aesthetics.
Whether left natural or customized with paint or stain, this swing promises years of enjoyment and functionality, making it a worthwhile addition to any garden or patio.
