Not the drift wood grey look, but I saw a little stool in a magaziner discribed as being "soaped oak". Looked like raw wood, but I guess the soap acts like a sealant so the wood is still protected somewhat. I think it need a bit of maintenance by the purchaser. But maybe that could be used as part of the shpeel- like selling a poodle. "Ony dedicated people who are willing to commit to regular maintenance are allowed to purchase." As least soap is easy an non toxic. :shrug: Wonder how it goes on our silky oaks? Maybe you could use "laundry soap, or lux soap flakes. :hmm:
Here is a bunch of links.
