Wooden Benches

Our benches are solid wood, in elm from northern China and reclaimed pine, with the knots, grain and weathered surfaces of old timber. They range from our skinny elm noodle bench, only 5 to 6 inches deep for a narrow entryway or the end of a bed, to rustic benches up to 98 inches long for a dining table.

Our elm benches are handcrafted from elm wood sourced from the Northern Region of China, and the Reclaimed Wood Bench is built from reclaimed pine. Individual pieces will display organic variations in color, texture, and detail including small splits, knots, joint lines, or other natural features that add one-of-a-kind character. This is the essence of wabi-sabi design—finding beauty in imperfection and celebrating the authentic story told by each piece of wood.

Benches can also help define a room, creating distinct moments that help establish the flow of your space. Style them with decorative pillows and throws to add pattern and warmth, or let the natural beauty of the wood stand alone as a sculptural statement. From a hallway bench that provides a spot to remove shoes to a dining bench that opens your table to adaptable entertaining, these pieces bring both practicality and organic beauty to your home.
