Description

Long bench. The bench is stained yellow, with the top discolored to a darker shade from use. The underside of the top is grooved depth-wise 11" in from each end, in which the legs are set. The legs have angular bracket feet. The legs are secured in place by dovetail-jointed braces set in an upward diagonal from the leg to the bench top. The bench top is cut to allow the brace to sit flush.
