Know before you buy
The bench achieves its floating appearance through two tempered glass supports that are nearly invisible. Despite their delicate look, these glass legs are engineered for high structural integrity and stability, providing a solid foundation for the wooden seat.
Yes, you can customize the base to suit your interior palette. It is available in either Extra Clear glass, which provides maximum transparency, or Smoked Grey glass, which offers a slightly moodier, tinted aesthetic.
Assembly is required, but it is straightforward. The bench comes with all necessary hardware, and because the design relies on a modular, clean-lined structure, the components align intuitively.
While the Air Bench is designed for standard seating use, the tempered glass supports are robust enough to handle typical household weight loads. However, it is not intended to be used as a step stool or for heavy, concentrated weight.
The Air Bench is available in a variety of wood finishes, allowing you to select a tone that complements your current decor. We recommend reviewing the specific wood swatches to ensure the grain and stain align with your existing pieces.
Absolutely. Its durable construction makes it well-suited for entryways or hallways. Just keep in mind that the glass base will show fingerprints or dust more readily than solid wood or metal legs, so occasional cleaning is recommended to maintain that 'floating' clarity.
