Add rustic style to any room of your home with this beautiful, distressed poplar bench. Featuring a criss-cross back rest, this bench is perfect for hallway seating and storage, with its storage under the seat and an extra-large drawer in the bottom. Store everything from coats and blankets, to shoes and slippers. To achieve the unique rustic appearance of this collection, each piece of birch wood is distressed, by darkening and rounding its corners and flattening or indenting its edges, and then treated with a dark espresso stain for a high quality finish. The combination of solid birch wood and birch veneers produce an affordable piece that will last for years to come. The slate inlays feature multiple rich colors that can vary wildly, assuring your piece of furniture will be one-of-a-kind, and are sealed in the wood to prevent cracks and debris. The dimpled knobs are black hand forged iron and high quality waterfall glass is used throughout.
