Know before you buy
Yes, the bench is crafted from durable, FSC-certified teak, which is naturally weather-resistant and suitable for outdoor environments. Over time, the wood will naturally transition from its original honey tone to a silver-grey patina when exposed to the elements.
The 51-inch width is designed to comfortably accommodate two adults.
Teak is a low-maintenance material that does not require oiling to remain durable. If you prefer to maintain the original color rather than letting it develop a silver-grey patina, you can apply a teak sealer, though this is purely an aesthetic choice.
Absolutely. Its elegant Scandinavian design and cross-back detailing make it a sophisticated seating option for entryways, hallways, or sunrooms.
The bench is typically delivered flat-packed and requires assembly. All necessary hardware and instructions are included to ensure a straightforward setup.
