Product info

With its solid form and stark black hue, our weighty Java Bench is sure to command some well-deserved attention wherever it goes. This one-of-a-kind piece comes to us from the Indonesian island of Java, where it was handcrafted from a repurposed teak farm trough, or lesung in the Bahasa language. Drawing on centuries of traditional wood burning techniques, it’s coated with several layers of a squid ink and shellac mixture, which is charred while still wet to create a deep charcoal finish. Simple yet striking, our Java Bench is perfect as a statement-making seat in a spacious entryway but could also double as a long, global-inspired coffee table in the living room. True reclaimed pieces, each of our Java Benches is unique and variations in size and organic characteristics should be expected.
