Handmade in Bristol, it's a study in restraint—solid oak with trapeze legs that feel both mid-century and timeless. The character-grade options mean each bench carries its own grain story, adding warmth without fuss. It works equally well anchoring a dining setup, breaking up a long hallway, or tucked beside an entryway. The real strength here is versatility: sturdy enough for daily use, compact enough to fit tighter spaces, and designed to age beautifully. Fair warning: solid oak requires occasional oiling to maintain its finish.
