Benches

The difference between a bench and a daybed is merely a matter of the depth of the seat. Both are made of teak wood and of mortise and tenon construction held together by wooden pegs. All are genuinely old pieces, hand made in Java and frequently have carved surfaces. Regional styles vary ,and none are identical. Please email us for questions and detailed pictures of a particular selection. Please realize that all items shown are wthout teak oil or any other amendments which can greatly enhance the appearance. Prices from $6oo
