Reclaimed Wood Benches

A reclaimed wood bench seats more people at the table than chairs and slides neatly underneath when it isn't in use. These Fireside Lodge benches are built from authentic barnwood salvaged from 1800s tobacco barns and handcrafted in Minnesota, so every seat shows its own grain, nail holes and color. Pair one with a barnwood dining table, or use it in an entryway or at the foot of a bed.

How to Choose a Reclaimed Wood Bench

Length

Benches come in 36-inch, 42-inch, 48-inch, 5-foot and 6-foot lengths. Choose a bench about 12 inches shorter than your table so it tucks between the legs; a 6-foot table usually takes a 5-foot bench.

Wood seat or upholstered seat

Wood seats come in Antique Oak, a smooth planed reclaimed-oak finish, or Artisan, which keeps the oak's original circular saw marks. Upholstered seats come in standard, upgrade and premium fabric grades or leather.

Height and depth

These benches are about 18 inches tall and 15 inches deep, a standard dining seat height for tables around 30 inches tall.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size bench fits my dining table?

A good rule is a bench about 12 inches shorter than the table length. For a 5-foot table, choose a 48-inch bench; for a 6-foot table, a 5-foot bench; for a 7-foot table, a 6-foot bench.

Is the barnwood really reclaimed?

Yes. Fireside Lodge builds its barnwood line from red oak salvaged from 1800s tobacco barns, so no two benches look exactly alike.

What is the difference between Antique Oak and Artisan?

Antique Oak is a smooth, planed reclaimed-oak surface that's easy to wipe clean. Artisan keeps the wood's original circular saw marks for more texture and character.

Can I get an upholstered bench?

Yes. Upholstered benches come in standard, upgrade and premium fabric grades or leather on a reclaimed barnwood frame.
