Rugged Elegance: Handcrafted Welsh Slate Garden Benches
Elevate your outdoor living space with this exceptional pair of garden benches, crafted from the finest natural Welsh slate sourced directly from the renowned Cwt-y-Bugail slate mine in foothills of Snowdonia National Park.
The Cwt-y-Bugail quarry has long been recognized as one of the premier sources of high-quality Welsh slate, prized for its distinctive character and unparalleled durability. Nestled within the breath-taking landscapes of Snowdonia, this historic site has been providing exceptional building materials for centuries, making it the ideal source for these timeless garden benches.
Each bench in this set features a riven surface, a result of the natural cleavage planes within the slate. This unique texture creates a rugged, tactile quality that beautifully complements the minimalist design, evoking a sense of wabi-sabi – the Japanese aesthetic that celebrates the beauty in imperfection. The natural variations and subtle gradations of colour within the slate add to the charm and individuality of each piece.
Each Measuring 1m (40”) in length, 40cm (16”) in depth, and 48cm (19”) in height, these benches offer ample seating for two. Each bench is made up of 3 pieces, two bolster legs and a single slate slab.
The slate used in these benches is renowned for its resistance to weathering, fading, and deterioration, ensuring that they will continue to grace your space for generations to come. With minimal maintenance required, these benches showcase the enduring appeal of this exceptional natural material, a true masterpiece of sustainable, high-quality design.
