Know before you buy
For high-traffic areas, hardwoods like Hickory or Quartersawn White Oak are excellent choices due to their superior hardness and resistance to denting. Brown Maple is a popular, versatile option, though it is slightly softer than the oak varieties.
Because wood grain absorbs stain differently, we provide physical stain samples for your approval before we begin the finishing process. This allows you to see exactly how the color appears on your chosen wood species in your home's lighting.
A good rule of thumb is to choose a bench that is roughly 6 to 12 inches shorter than the length of your table. This allows the bench to be tucked neatly underneath when not in use, providing a clean, streamlined look.
While solid wood is a natural material that reacts to changes in humidity, the Amish-handcrafted construction techniques are designed to account for natural expansion and contraction. Keeping the bench in a climate-controlled environment will help maintain its structural integrity for years.
Oak and Quartersawn White Oak feature prominent, bold grain patterns, while Cherry and Brown Maple offer a smoother, more uniform appearance. Rustic Quartersawn White Oak includes natural character marks like knots for a more organic, lived-in aesthetic.
