This Chinese antique reproduction has elegant lines with unique details and rich wood grain. This wooden bench is made without nails but made with the ingenuity of wood craftsmen who use age old Chinese wood joinery techniques. This bench is made of solid Elmwood with a rich hand rubbed lacquer patina finish for a protective, water resistant finish that won’t water mark. The top piece of wood is reclaimed lumber with a slight distressed finish. This style bench is used in China as a bench in schools and martial art studios there for its name. Use in the bedroom in front of a bed to hang a quilt on, or use in the living room as a coffee table, in front of a window as a plant stand or as a bench in the entry way. A deep medium brown finish will be a warm light tone that would add life to any interior.
