So what is all the hype about cypress really about? Every wood has it's advantages and disadvantages. So why is everyone asking for patio furniture items offered in cypress. Cypress has been used throughout history in the sturdy construction of piers, railroad bridges, ships and boats, and is now a favorite for outdoor furniture. Its watertightness is of great benefit to outdoor furniture. Cypress lumber is kiln-dried then crafted into beautiful furniture pieces. It doesn't normally check or warp as many softer woods do, so it will stand the test of time. Cypress contains a natural preservative, cypressene, which further enhances its durability. It takes and holds stains and paints longer than other woods, so it's a perfect choice for the long term outdoors. And we are proud to carry three of the leading manufacturers of cypress patio furniture; Cypress Moon, Ted's Porch Swings, and Great American Woodies.
