Know before you buy

The natural clear coat highlights the raw grain and light tones of the oak. The brown and warm black stains offer a deeper, more saturated aesthetic while still allowing the natural wood texture to remain visible.
Yes, the Pillar Bench is designed as a functional, substantial piece of furniture. Its dimensions and solid construction make it durable enough for daily use in an entryway, living room, or at the foot of a bed.
To maintain the finish, dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or polishes, and keep the bench away from direct heat sources or excessive moisture to prevent the wood from warping.
