Know before you buy
Cast stone is a highly durable, concrete-based material designed to mimic natural stone. It is weather-resistant and heavy enough to remain stable in your garden year-round, though it may develop a natural patina over time when exposed to the elements.
Because each piece is crafted by hand, you should expect slight variations in color, texture, and finish. These nuances are a hallmark of the artisanal process and ensure that your bench has a unique character.
The bench weighs 498 pounds. Due to its significant weight, we recommend having at least two to three people assist with placement, or hiring professional movers to ensure it is positioned safely on a level surface.
Yes, the bench measures 56 inches in length, which provides ample space for two adults to sit comfortably.
Cast stone is relatively low-maintenance. You can simply clean it with a soft brush and water as needed to remove debris, and no specialized sealing is required for the piece to remain durable outdoors.
