white cedar, locally known as "juniper", is found in the acidic swamplands
of the eastern coastal area of the United States. The history of harvesting
this aromatic and durable wood dates to the pre-colonial era, with the industry
experiencing steady growth as more and more uses for this versatile commodity
developed. In colonial times, cedar was used for buckets, ship planking and
furniture. The largest use of Atlantic white cedar prior to the Civil War
was the manufacture of shingles, which were exported from Norfolk, Virginia
to overseas ports. Later uses included cabinetry, washing machines, freezers
and wood siding, with the invention of the cedar shad boat becoming an innovation
for the Dare County, North Carolina fisherman. Atlantic white cedar is a renewable
resource and efforts have been made for responsible harvesting, restoration
and replanting of white cedar wetlands across the Eastern United States.
Why choose cedar?
Cedar furniture weathers to a beautiful, silver gray patina during the first few months of exposure to sunlight. Although not necessary, the application of a penetrating water repellent will never hurt your furniture.
With reasonable care, your carefully crafted cedar furniture will provide 20 to 25 years of comfort and attractive durability.
About finishing:
Cedar furniture requires no finishing unless it is to be exposed to severe winter climates. In that case, we recommend the application of a reputable. penetrating water repellent.
