Create a decorative place in your garden for socializing and relaxing with the Tahawus line. Tahawus means "cloud splitter" in an Eastern Woodland Native American dialect. The unique diagonal pattern used throughout the line symbolizes the rugged and enduring beauty of the great peaks of the Adirondacks.
Cedar facts: Our Northern White Cedar, natural and untreated, is grown in moist swampy NE woodlands. Cedar absorbs and loses moisture slowly, which minimizes the dry cracking, splintering and swelling more characteristic of oak or pine. Cedar has the US Forest Products Laboratory highest rating for decay and disease resistance. Fresh cedar odor is a mild insect repellent. Our cedar products are shipped in their natural color, pale tan or light gold. The color changes evenly over time to a silver gray. Water-based or oil stains will delay the weathering process. Latex paint coats evenly and lets wood breathe.
