Vintage Elm Bench - Circa 1945 No. M18
Vintage elm bench, circa 1945. The seat has a gentle, natural bow to it — something you only get from solid Elm that has lived a long life — and the surface tells that story clearly: softened edges, a matte, open grain worn smooth at the high points, and legs that have darkened with age in the way good wood does. It's a spare, grounded shape. Narrow enough to tuck at the foot of a bed or against a wall, long enough to anchor a farmhouse dining table. That wabi sabi feel isn't styled in; it's simply what eighty years looks like on well-made elm. 74"L x 11"D x 20"H.
