[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 244967, member: 51"]In response to Brad's question, the seat is a solid plank, not plywood. Also not several planks together, but one plank. As for the green, as mentioned it doesn't look like the whole thing was painted. Seems to be just on the ends of the open wood and also wherever nails were put into place. Maybe was used as some kind of sealant. I think the trefoil shapes are just coincidental. Must be the natural shape of the nodes in the wood, but good eye, Yourturn. They seem to have some kind of filler or coating which does make them stand out, but looking carefully I think it is just a natural shape in the wood.
