Stools, benches and small chairs, for me, have always been somewhat of an accessory piece around our home; you can never have too many. A good one fits into any space! Small or large, in and out of doors, you can move it around from room-to-room, space-to-space, to meet the need of the moment, whether it been seating or décor. The frame of this fabulous rustic Country French-style bench was made from cedar wood using mortise and tenon joinery. Its handwoven pre-twisted natural rush bench seat has an attractive randed, over-and under
pattern. Natural rush is strong and comfortable and the weave of this bench seat is taut and in excellent condition. The legs H-stretcher is a reinforcing element for the bench which provides structural integrity. The dark walnut stain with natural wax finish has a distressed, worn finish in areas that adds character and warmth. This beauty measures 17½” x 19½” x 13¾” H/W/D; seat 17” x 11” W/D; weight approximately 10 lbs. In excellent condition with age-appropriate wear (see photos 7, 8 & 11). We believe it was made sometime in the 1950s in the United States based on the wood and construction methods employed by an unknown maker. Its rustic charisma will complement most any décor style and allow you to create your own unique seating look!
