{"product_id":"cedar-log-tete-a-tete-yard-swing","title":"Cedar Log Tete-A-Tete Yard Swing","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Cedar Log Tete-A-Tete Yard Swing is a freestanding outdoor swing with two seats. The A-frame stand is part of the piece. No porch ceiling required, no separate mount to purchase. Plant it in a yard, on a garden path, or at the edge of a deck and it's a complete setup. Built from 100% Northern White Cedar — the naturally rot and insect resistant wood Lakeland Mills has used in Edmore, Michigan since 1923. Mortise and tenon joints. Galvanized exterior hardware throughout. Contoured seat slats on both sides.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy Northern White Cedar for a Yard Piece\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA yard swing sits in full sun exposure, in open air, through every season. No porch overhang. No roof coverage. Full weather, all year. Chinese fir — the wood used in most imported outdoor swings — isn't rot-resistant, and in open yard exposure it deteriorates faster than it would in a covered location. The typical lifespan is 1 to 3 years. Northern White Cedar is genuinely rot and insect resistant without chemical treatment, designed for exactly this kind of outdoor placement. It lasts 10 to 20 years. In a yard piece where the whole point is permanence and low maintenance, the material is the entire case.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFreestanding, Facing, Ready to Use\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tete-a-tete configuration works fantastic for conversing.  The A-frame stand is sized and weighted to balance the swing motion for two adults. No anchoring or installation required beyond setting it in place. Finish as you prefer: leave Northern White Cedar untreated to weather to silver-grey over time, or apply any outdoor-rated oil, stain, or paint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: 100% Northern White Cedar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConfiguration: Freestanding tete-a-tete (two seats facing the same diretion) with A-frame stand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConstruction: Mortise and tenon joints, galvanized exterior hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: Natural cream — weathers to silver-grey, or apply a penetrating oil, stain, or paint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShips partially assembled with all hardware and instructions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in Edmore, Michigan — family-built since 1923\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSKU: CFU19\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Lakeland Mills Furniture Co","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43493537841186,"sku":"CFU19","price":749.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0781\/0419\/9202\/files\/CF1119.jpg?v=1739452366","url":"https:\/\/lakelandmills.com\/products\/cedar-log-tete-a-tete-yard-swing","provider":"Lakeland Mills Furniture Co","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
