Earlier this year, I was on my morning walk when I saw something that stopped me in my tracks. It was a gorgeous, vintage-looking curved bench. Now, this wasn’t just any ol’ bench parked in front of a tree—this bench wrapped around the tree. I’ve been looking for one to add to my back yard ever since this sighting, and months later, I came across this one on Amazon and just had to share it with the world.
I love the distressed look of this antique white because it’ll really stand out when it’s shady. The wrought-iron design is the star of the show for me, though. Not to mention, the scrolled legs are charming, and there are curled motifs on the bench seat itself. To top it off, the part that wraps around the tree is ringed with a simple, Gothic Revival-style pointed arch.
The bench is made of solid iron, which the brand says is powder-coated to help it resist rust and chipping paint. It weighs 13 pounds and can hold up to 550 pounds. Customers report that assembling it is an easy one-person job.
The opening that goes around the trunk is 20 inches wide, so this one is best for smaller trees. If you don’t have a tree for it but still love the look of the bench, you could even set it at the corner of your porch or around a large planter. No matter where it goes, it’ll bring tons of vintage charm to your outdoor space.
Like the concept but need a different style? Amazon has many curved garden benches to choose from.
