Know before you buy
Yes, the bench is crafted from solid afromosia wood and finished with a hand-rubbed outdoor oil, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments.
Afromosia is a durable, high-quality hardwood often compared to teak for its strength and resistance to the elements. Over time, the wood may develop a natural patina, which is a standard characteristic of high-quality solid wood exposed to light and air.
The Occidental Bench arrives fully assembled and ready for use. Given its solid wood construction and 60-pound weight, we recommend having assistance when moving it into your desired space.
To preserve the finish, we recommend periodic re-application of an outdoor-grade wood oil, especially if the bench is kept in direct sunlight or exposed to harsh weather conditions. Regular cleaning with a soft, damp cloth is sufficient for day-to-day maintenance.
The bench is designed with a sturdy, minimalist frame that provides excellent stability on flat, level surfaces. If placing it on an uneven outdoor surface, you may need to use leveling shims to ensure it sits perfectly flat.
