Know before you buy
You can choose between Oak, Brown Maple, or Cherry. Each wood type offers distinct grain patterns and durability, allowing you to select the best match for your existing home decor.
The bench is built with 100% solid wood using traditional joinery techniques. The back spindles protrude through the seat and are wedged, glued, and screwed to ensure long-term structural integrity.
Yes, the bench is available in several widths ranging from 30 inches to 60 inches. This allows you to select the specific footprint that best suits your hallway or entryway space.
The scooped seat is contoured to follow the natural shape of the body, which provides significantly more comfort than a flat wooden seat. It is a recommended choice if you plan to use the bench frequently for putting on shoes or as a seating area.
Each bench is finished with a catalyzed Resistovar finish. This high-quality coating is designed to resist moisture, heat, and everyday wear, protecting the wood while highlighting its natural beauty.
The arms are an optional feature chosen during the customization process. Because they are integrated into the bench's construction for stability, they are not intended to be removed or adjusted after the bench has been handcrafted.
