Picture yourself in this swing, gently swaying away all your worries and cares. One of our favorites, the Cottage Classic Savannah Swing and Arbor Frame has everything you need to create an oasis of relaxation in your yard. The swing has a double Adirondack backrest with the traditional deep-seat angle. The swing and frame are made from durable Southern Cypress, which resists decay, splitting, and checking, and is assembled with stainless steel hardware. Choose from a variety of acrylic color stains to coordinate with your outdoor decor. The Cuprinol water-based outdoor stain protects against damaging UV rays to keep the color from fading, and the stainless steel hardware won't rust or discolor the set.
Hang the swing in your favorite part of your yard. You can let climbing plants grow up the sides and over the top for a rich and romantic atmosphere. Rust-resistant hardware is included.
Why does the Cottage Classic collection use an acrylic color stain instead of paint?
Plain and simple…because an acrylic color stain lasts longer. Paint does effectively seal the wood – temporarily. It's the unpainted areas you can't see that create the problems. Screw holes on the underside of every board, for instance, invite moisture to work its way under the painted surface. With no place for the water to go, the result is rotting wood under the surface. Painted Cypress products will begin to deteriorate within two years if left outside in the weather. A water-based or oil-based stain, on the other hand, allows the wood to breathe. Any moisture that gets in can still get out. After the color stain is applied to each Cottage Classic piece, it is lightly sanded to create a slightly weathered look.
