Know before you buy
Yes, the bench is crafted from solid teak, a dense hardwood naturally resistant to rot and insects. It is designed to withstand all weather conditions and can be left outdoors throughout the year.
If left untreated, the teak will gradually transition from its original honey-brown color to a soft, silvery-grey patina. This process is purely aesthetic and does not affect the structural integrity of the wood.
The bench is designed with a curved top rail and wide, well-placed back slats that provide good lumbar support. While it is comfortable on its own, an optional cushion is available if you prefer additional padding for longer periods of sitting.
The Waveney bench measures 46 inches long, 23 inches deep, and 34 inches high. The seat height is 16 inches, and the arm height is 24 inches.
Barlow Tyrie products typically arrive partially assembled. You will likely need to complete the final assembly of the main components using the provided hardware, which is straightforward for most users.
