Farmhouse Bench

All James & James items are made to order, customized to the specifications you select.

Crafted from solid Knotty Alder Hardwood, our furniture is built for everyday use and ready to become your next heirloom.

Every piece is hand-finished in the color of your choosing, then sealed with a polyurethane finish to further protect the surface. Surface area knots are filled for a smooth finish, while all other knots are left open and natural.

Shown in knotty alder, this piece can also be crafted from white oak, maple, or black walnut upon request.

If you’re interested in exploring these options or would like pricing details, feel free to reach out to our dedicated sales team at care@carpenterjames.com or give us a call at 479-633-7557. We’d love to help bring your vision to life!

Bench Sizing Recommendation for Four-Legged Tables

When ordering your bench to accompany a four-corner-legged James & James table, we recommend selecting a bench that is 1.5 feet shorter than the length of your table. This ensures the bench will slide comfortably underneath the table between the legs, providing both a functional and aesthetically pleasing fit.

Bench Sizing Recommendation for Pedestal or Trestle Style Tables

When ordering your bench to accompany a pedestal or trestle style James & James table, we recommend selecting a bench that is the same length as your table. This ensures a harmonious and balanced appearance, while providing ample seating and a cohesive look.

Ordering a Bench Without a Table

Benches ordered by themselves, or not paired with a table, will be sized at the selected length. If you need a bench to fit an existing table, please reach out to our customer support team for a custom order.

Please note that each measurement is an approximation, as our pieces are hand-built. We allow for up to 1" in variation to accommodate the unique nature of handcrafted furniture.

For daily care, we recommend dusting regularly with a soft, dry cloth to maintain a clean surface. When necessary, use water and a wood-safe cleaning product for a deeper clean. Avoid abrasive cleaners and harsh chemicals, as they can deteriorate the finish and potentially damage the wood. Be sure to dry immediately after cleaning to prevent moisture damage.

We strongly believe that your delivery experience should match the quality of our product. All James & James orders ship with White Glove delivery as we are committed to providing the most premium delivery experience.

Please review our Shipping Policy page for additional details.

We believe craftsmen should stand behind their products. That’s why we promise: 

1. If your item(s) isn’t delivered in the correct color, size (after allowing for our 1” variance), or style that you ordered, we will replace it.  
2. If your item(s) arrives damaged and the damage is noted upon the delivery paperwork, we will evaluate the damage and at our discretion either repair or replace some or all of the product that is damaged.  
3. If your item(s) ever unnaturally cracks or splits, we’ll fix or replace it as indicated in our warranty.   

Our furniture is handcrafted from real wood and exhibits unique rustic qualities. Please be sure to read our Cosmetic Standards before ordering.
