This is the distinctive pattern common in quarter sawn oak... and the reason it is so highly
prized for classic Mission style and Greene and Greene furniture. This pattern will show in
the finish to some extent whether the piece is fumed to a dark color or treated more naturally.
This is the 8/4 board that will be used for legs and the seat frame. The 4/4 board will be used
for stretchers and aprons. The color on that piece is just as nice. Wish I had doubled the order!
