Campania International Accordion Bench

Yes, cast stone is designed for outdoor longevity. It is a dense, weather-resistant material that holds up well against the elements, though we recommend covering it or moving it to a sheltered area during harsh winter freezes to prevent potential cracking.

The bench arrives in pieces and requires assembly. Because the components are heavy cast stone, you will need at least two people to safely lift and position the seat and legs.

Like any outdoor finish exposed to direct sunlight and rain, the stain will naturally weather and soften over time. This process often enhances the bench's character, giving it a more authentic, aged appearance.

While it doesn't strictly require a concrete pad, it is best placed on a level, stable surface like a patio, stone pavers, or a compacted gravel bed. Placing it directly on soft soil may cause it to settle unevenly over time due to its 390-pound weight.

At 390 pounds, this bench is designed to be substantial and stable, not portable. While it can be moved with enough help or proper equipment, it is intended to be a permanent fixture in your garden.
