No, acid-stained with a Poly top coat for protection. Looks lovely, though too dark: I plan to re-top or polish this fall. :/

Before:

Photobucket





Wife bought the above couches, without doing any real measurements. She was surprised (so was I!) when they were delivered, and it turn out the seating area is "loveseat" size. The whole point was to maximize seating in this room.

Couldn't live with couches that I can't stretch out on, so, hammer, saws, etc. and a couple weeks later:







A couple from along the way
