Made using reclaimed Oak of unknown age, CANTER is a solid oak handmade bench assembled using traditional wood working techniques and constriction methods. Numerus different joints have been used to make the bench strong yet elegant and only dowel and glue hold it all together. No nails or screws have been used, which gives the bench a feeling of warmth and integrity. The top of the bench is made from one solid length sawn waney edged Oak plank which I kept rawn and unfinished in order to contradict the highly finished leg design. After days of plaining and sanding to 240 grit, Danish oil was hand applied to the bench to give it a durable finish and bring out the beautiful oak wood grain.
