Chris Maruca , Dovetail Bench (TABLES, CHAIRS, DESKS 2021 )

Focussing on precise through dovetail and half lap joinery, this Japanese inspired bench seat was designed to last a lifetime. The design itself is simple yet pleasing and it allows for each component to be replaced if any damage occurs. The strength of the joinery allows for a very sturdy and long lasting piece of furniture which is important to me. The bench seat was crafted using American Oak timber and finished using a hard wax oil.
