Mr Greer found beautiful leather pieces for the seats & installed them with brass studs. The re-seating cost was $300. See attached receipt. ABOUT QUARTER SAWN OAK - Quarter sawn oak is more expensive than other types of lumber because it's more labor intensive to produce. The process involves cutting the oak log into quarters at specific an-gles, which creates unique prints and leaves some of the oak unus-able. Not every sawmill offers this technique, which can lead to a limited supply and higher price. Quarter sawn oak has been a popular choice for wood furniture since the early 20th century. It's especially popular for mission style furniture.
