"Frame Material: Solid Wood." "100% solid pine wood from Southern Brazil." Do not be fooled by these descriptions. I like this set enough not to bother with returning the whole thing, but this is NOT solid wood with a finish. While it does appear to be made of solid pieces of wood, there is a veneer on top of those pieces of wood which is distressed. The appearance up close and the feel of it is almost plastic-like, looking and feeling much cheaper than a true solid wood furniture set. I bought this because of the way it was described, but this is not what I would call solid wood.
