{"product_id":"workshop-elm-bench","title":"Workshop Elm Bench","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"23\" data-end=\"534\"\u003eThe Workshop Elm Bench has the kind of quiet character that makes a home feel layered and lived in. Crafted from solid elm wood with a beautifully timeworn finish, it brings warmth, texture, and a sense of history into dining spaces, entryways, or at the foot of a bed. The rustic silhouette feels simple and honest, while the natural grain, knots, and imperfections give every piece its own personality. It’s the sort of bench that looks like it’s always belonged there — relaxed, practical, and full of charm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-section-id=\"1iz91iu\" data-start=\"536\" data-end=\"552\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"554\" data-end=\"845\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"brkrgi\" data-start=\"554\" data-end=\"640\"\u003eCrafted from solid elm wood with rich natural grain and authentic rustic character\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"f9d8s8\" data-start=\"641\" data-end=\"738\"\u003eVersatile bench design suited to dining tables, hallways, bedrooms, or covered outdoor spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"171oowh\" data-start=\"739\" data-end=\"845\"\u003eEvery piece is unique, with natural variations, knots, markings, and signs of age adding individuality\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-section-id=\"1tellfy\" data-start=\"852\" data-end=\"882\"\u003eWhy This Works in Your Home\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"884\" data-end=\"1137\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"hu8hb0\" data-start=\"884\" data-end=\"962\"\u003eAdds warmth and texture to modern, coastal, rustic, or farmhouse interiors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"19ftngj\" data-start=\"963\" data-end=\"1043\"\u003eSlim profile makes it easy to style in narrower spaces without feeling heavy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"azcb0o\" data-start=\"1044\" data-end=\"1137\"\u003ePairs beautifully with timber dining tables, linen upholstery, and natural woven textures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-section-id=\"1hryhf7\" data-start=\"1144\" data-end=\"1150\"\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-section-id=\"1qvnput\" data-start=\"1152\" data-end=\"1199\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill my bench look exactly like the photos?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1200\" data-end=\"1407\"\u003eNot exactly — and that’s part of the appeal.
