House Note · About this piece

Part of the pleasure of an antique hunt on Portobello Road is finding something that has already done years of honest work and still has plenty left in it. This bench is that kind of find, an old frame brought back to life for the garden. Its long seat makes room to share a morning coffee, its arms give each end a place to rest an elbow, and its solid hardwood has long since proved it can live outdoors.

Each bench is an antique, so size and design vary, and the measurements given are a guide. It is rated to hold 500 lbs, and the arms sit 24.5 inches from the ground. Left outside without oil or sealer, the wood slowly weathers to a soft silver grey, which many people love; an outdoor wood oil applied each spring keeps the warmer tone instead.

Set it against a garden wall or under a tree with a few cushions and a side table for a drink, or along a porch where people stop to pull off muddy boots. It also works indoors, in a mudroom or at the end of a long hallway. This listing is for one antique bench.
