Bench No. 3
Bench No. 3 is a handmade bench with the attention going both to the design and the strength of the piece. The structural joints use a floating mortise and tenon joinery system that yields maximum strength without unsightly screws or fasteners. The crest (backrest) is milled to the proper thickness to allow a comfortable flex to take place while still holding the necessary strength.
The seat and crest (backrest) can be built out of virtually any hardwood you desire while the framework is constructed out of solid ash--ash lends subtle, beautiful grain lines that show through the burnished milk paint.
The milk paint is a stoneware gray that will wear beautifully over the life of the bench. Other colors are available upon request.
Finally, as with all our furniture, we want this piece to be specific to you. We do this by not building it to some averaged standard but to your (or your family's) specific size and need.
