Amish Direct Furniture Laporte Live Edge Bench

A live edge design means the bench retains the natural, irregular edge of the tree slab rather than being cut into a straight, uniform line. Because each piece of wood is different, the specific contours and character of the edge will vary, making every bench one-of-a-kind.

Wormy Maple and Rustic Cherry offer distinct grain patterns and character marks, while Walnut and Rustic Walnut provide a richer, darker aesthetic with deep, chocolatey tones. All options are solid hardwoods chosen for their long-term durability and ability to withstand daily use in a dining environment.

The 72-inch bench is generally ideal for standard dining tables seating four to six people, while the 84-inch option is better suited for larger tables that accommodate six to eight guests. Measure the length of your table and ensure you have enough clearance on either side to comfortably slide the bench in and out.

Yes, the solid wood construction is exceptionally durable and well-suited for high-traffic areas like entryways or mudrooms. However, keep in mind that live edge furniture is best kept indoors away from direct, prolonged sunlight or extreme humidity changes to prevent the wood from warping.

Yes, you can select from a variety of stain options to coordinate with your current furniture. We recommend requesting wood samples if you are trying to color-match an existing piece, as wood grain and stain absorption can vary significantly between species.
