Dawntiki - the banana tree is a 'apple' banana tree which produces smaller, sweet bananas. If you're interested in a set of remake rattan (which is nice), I can provide you with a contact in Mission Viejo.

Gecko - Mike, the pieces are all from the 40's and 50's. We just finished the first set a couple of weeks ago. We picked up the frames from some folks we know in Encinitas (down by Judy, but not Judy).

Bamzeno - drop by anytime!

FlounderArt - you asked is koa bamboo? I think you meant is bamboo rattan - No. Bamboo is of the grass family, and rattan is of the palm family. In a nutshell, if it's hollow, it's bamboo; if it's solid it's rattan.
