I'm not sure what the other reviewers are thinking, the frame on this is definitely not wood, it's some sort of composite. I should have known better by the price, but the description clearly specifies that it's made of wood. Also, you can't really see in the photo that the frame is raised on the inner edge and curves down to a taper on the outer edge. It doesn't have the rustic look that the photo (to me) seems to depict; it's somewhat cheap looking.
