This item ships free! *This item is custom built. Usually ships within 2 weeks* This rock solid Redwood bench makes a perfect accent piece for your garden, patio or any outdoor setting. Also ideal for interior areas such as hallways, showers and even saunas. Select from four, five and six foot size benches. Beautifully handcrafted from sustainable harvested California Redwood trees ranging from 50 years (“Young Growth”) to more than 200 years (“Old Growth”) in age. In general, grain density and color differ with age and the older the tree the longer the manufacturer’s warranty (however with simple maintenance, it’s all made to last a lifetime - even under commercial conditions).

Regardless of age, all lumber is cut and milled Extra-Thick (up to 50% thicker than standard boards) so it looks, feels and is … extremely sturdy and durable. Assembly hardware is 100% stainless steel. Ships flat packed, typically within two weeks. The quality of the wood from old-growth trees is extraordinary and is no longer available in the lumber market. Please call or e-mail with any questions. Your purchase directly supports the reforestation of our redwood forests. Each piece of our Redwood furniture was proudly created as part of a Restoration Forestry project, a sustainable practice by which annual tree growth significantly exceeds tree harvest. Such forests logged by low-impact methods yield top-quality timber while still growing mature trees. It is a wonderful practice ... and a wonderful product! The framing structure on the Forever Slat Benches is made from full two-inch thick boards; actual slats are 1 3/4" by 1 3/4". All benches are 18 inches high with 20-inch wide seats.
