Arts and Crafts Upholstered Bench
comments (0) October 24th, 2012 in Reader's Gallery
This bench was made at a client’s request to match an existing hutch. In all, Johnson built a dining table, four chairs, and two benches. The wood is quartersawn and rift-sawn red oak stained to match the original piece, then finished with a mix of linseed oil, turpentine, and varathane. The upholstery is Naugahyde.
