Coracle Bench with Storage, Blackened White Oak and Leather

About the Item

Inspired by ancient fishing vessels, the Coracle bench features a half hide of English bridle leather remarkably formed and stretched by hand about a frame of solid wood. With a duality of function, the Coracle provides both stable seating for daily ritual and ample storage for delicate belongings. Perfect for the foot of a bed or as a welcoming host in your foyer or front hall. *Wood and Leather finishes on this item are customizable. *Overall Height is customizable to suit your personal preference. Dimensions: Length: 48" Depth: 15" Height: 16-1/4" (customizable) Handmade in Hamilton, Ontario. Material Notes: Vegetable tanning is a natural, eco-friendly process that produces durable leathers with a remarkable depth of color and rich patina. Our veg-tan leather is sourced locally through a tannery that has been perfecting this process since 1867 - dedicated as we are to a core offering of sustainable products that are created with integrity and a rich sense of materiality. Solid wood components are fabricated in house using locally sourced hardwoods purchased through FSC certified dealers.
