Design
The bench follows mid-century thinking: a flat seat, straightforward supports and nothing extra. At 14 inches deep it tucks neatly against a bed frame or along a wall, and the larger sizes step up to an 18-inch seat height for a slightly taller mattress. Because each one is cut from raw boards, knots and edge details differ from bench to bench.
Materials and Care
Artisans build every bench by hand from selected solid wood once the order is placed. Indoor finishes use a plant-based oil that brings out the grain; the outdoor water seal dries to a matte look rather than a sheen, so choose carefully at checkout. Natural wood varies in grain and tone. Dust with a soft cloth and re-oil occasionally.
Frequently asked questions
Which width should I choose for my bed?
Many people pick a bench a little narrower than the mattress so the bed frame frames it. For a queen, the 55 or 59 inch options are common; for a king, look at 69 to 83 inches.
Can it be used on a porch?
Yes. Order the outdoor water-seal finish for exterior use. It has a matte appearance instead of the soft sheen of the indoor finishes.
How long does delivery take?
Each piece is made to order. Cutting and carving take 7-10 days, you approve photos of your piece, finishing takes about 7 more days, and delivery adds 3-7 business days, so most orders arrive in about 3-4 weeks.
Will every piece look exactly like the photos?
The shape, size and finish match your selection, but solid wood has natural variations in grain, knots and tone, so no two pieces are identical. You see photos of your own piece before it is finished.

Full-grain and exotic leathers: wipe dust with a dry cloth, condition every few months, and let wet boots dry away from direct heat. Exotic skins (python, ostrich, alligator) want a conditioner made for exotics — never saddle soap. Use a boot tree or stuff with paper to hold the shape.
