The Ethnicraft Bok Outdoor Bench is designed for homeowners and design enthusiasts looking to bring sculptural, modern elegance to their garden, patio, or terrace. Crafted from high-quality FSC-certified solid teak, this bench offers a perfect blend of comfort and durability, featuring a signature curved silhouette by Alain van Havre. While its natural, untreated teak construction ensures long-term resistance to the elements, users should be prepared for the wood to transition into a weathered silver-grey patina over time.

Teak is highly weather-resistant and can be left outdoors year-round. However, using a furniture cover or moving it to a sheltered area can extend its longevity.
Yes, the sculptural design of the Bok collection is equally suited for entryways or dining rooms as it is for outdoor spaces.
For surface dirt, use a mild soap and water solution. For tougher stains, light sanding in the direction of the grain will restore the surface.
The bench is crafted from solid, dense teak, making it sufficiently heavy for most residential garden and terrace environments.
In the first few weeks, natural oils may leach out during rain. This is normal and will fade, but you may want to monitor placement on light-colored porous stone.
Adjust the positioning of the bench or use discreet furniture levelers under the legs if the outdoor flooring is uneven.
Small fissures are natural in solid teak as it expands and contracts with humidity; these do not affect structural integrity.
The bench is delivered fully assembled and ready for immediate placement. For maintenance, clean the surface periodically with a soft brush and mild soapy water to remove accumulated dirt or debris. Because the teak is left untreated, you may notice it develop a silver-grey patina within a few months of outdoor exposure; this is a natural aesthetic shift and does not affect the strength of the bench. If you prefer to keep the original honey-gold color, you may apply a teak-specific oil or sealer annually, ensuring the wood is clean and dry before application. Ensure the bench is placed on a level surface to maintain even weight distribution across the tapered legs.
