Stable Bench

from £450.00

These solid chunky oak benches are an engaging use of traditional joinery. They are a smaller and more manageable version of a similar style of bench we make fro manor houses and public gardens. With this stripped back version you get the same chunky look and feel, from a piece of furniture that's built to last a very long time, but with a lot more ease of use and maneuverability.
The benches are constructed from 180mm x 60mm planks of green oak which are planed smooth before the joinery begins. The leg sections, slightly narrower at 120mm, are  joined with traditional mortice and tenon joints which are secured together using a dried oak dowel to draw the joint together. This is the same way oak building, like stables and barns, have been built for hundreds of year giving an extremely stable joint. The top planks are then shaped and doweled in place from above, straight through the top and held in place with Iroko wedges.
Everything is joined using nothing but Oak and Iroko in different stages in the drying process, so as the green oak seasons the joinery gets tighter and the furniture gets more and more solid and stable.
