It's woven bamboo leaf matting imported from Bali
It's very supple and has a beautiful natural colour to it and is soft to touch
I will make backs from that thin pressed timber shit whatever that stuff is called:
You really get into your shopping don't you old mate, you should start writing for a home and garden magazine
And is that 'thin shit' you speak of called MDF?
