The Chester Buffalo Bench is a seating bench crafted from 100% solid mango wood. It features soft, curved lines and turned spindle detailing. It gives you somewhere to sit and put on shoes, drop a bag or add extra seating when guests visit. If you are shopping for a bench entryway, it is worth a closer look.
Material and build
Solid mango wood is a dense, hard-wearing hardwood with a distinctive grain. Because it is a natural material, every piece carries its own variations in tone, grain and small natural marks, so no two are exactly alike. Buffalo hide is a thick, hard-wearing leather with a natural grain that varies from piece to piece and develops character over time. The bouclé upholstery has a soft, looped texture that makes the piece comfortable to touch and adds warmth to the room. Soft curves mean fewer sharp corners, which is welcome in tight bedrooms and busy hallways. Turned detailing gives the piece a crafted, traditional character.
Durability and care
Solid wood is sturdy by nature and can be maintained or refinished over time, which is why it tends to outlast board-based furniture. It is designed for indoor use. Use coasters and trivets under hot or wet items, and wipe up spills promptly. For leather areas, dust with a dry cloth and condition occasionally to keep the surface supple. For upholstered areas, vacuum with a soft attachment and spot-clean gently when needed.
Where it fits in your home
In an entryway or hallway it provides a spot to sit and put on shoes, with room for bags or baskets alongside. At the end of a bed it adds a place to sit while dressing and a styling surface for a folded throw or cushions. In a dining area it can replace chairs on one side of the table for relaxed, flexible seating. At 36.8 in wide and 19.2 in tall, it is a sensible size for most standard rooms.
Styles it pairs with
Eclectic, rustic and industrial interiors all suit it well. Its leather and wood combination suits dark metals, wool throws and bold, earthy colours.
