I was concerned that the weave might have raw ends which might pick fine fabrics and scratch skin. No. They are smooth, very solid, well made, comfortable. They are EXACTLY what i needed for my little table. ...photo, ignore the dog painting. I painted it and don’t knownwhere to put it. But, the table and chairs actually match and complement the room perfectly.Table also from Wayfair. Beware. My table top is so uneven that I cannot put a wine glass on it without it rocking back and forth. Completely uneven all over top. I will put clear dots and a glass top to even it out. Unfortunately, getting the glass is a little problem.Love table anyway. It is in every room at one of my favorite lodges. Although Wayfair told me all table tops are uneven, those in three rooms I have stayed in are much more level than mine. They were not perfect, but, not so noticeable that my items did not lay flat on it. Perhaps you can see how bad my top reLly is from photo.
