The appearance is reflected in the fading of the wood. The speed of aging is difficult to estimate, and the characteristics of the wood itself, the length of time exposed to the sun , Light intensity, season, temperature, etc. are all related. This process is irreversible, so you can’t wait for the wood to age badly before processing it.
