Mesquite trees typically are thorny shrubs infesting range or pasture land in the arid Southwest.  Useable mesquite wood is very rare, hence the expense.  Useable wood is very beautiful, hence the appeal.  You experience an unusual sense of depth when looking into our oil finished mesquite rocking chairs.  The rich, red-brown color is distinctive and darkens and becomes richer with age.  The trees' irregular habits of growth yield correspondingly wild or variable figure.  Character marks typically found in mesquite include dark mineral streaks, minor defects, and iridescence.  (Click for more information about Mesquite.)

Our mesquite is cut by Texas Kiln Products and delivered green with a moisture content of 30–36%.  Mesquite lumber, being from a tree of arid country, tenaciously holds its water — especially in thick pieces.  We gently dry chair parts in our own kiln for five or six months to get all the pockets of water out and get the percentage of moisture down to 8%.  Drying slowly yields bright wood without hairline cracks.  Drying slowly can make lead times long.
