{"product_id":"handcrafted-wooden-memorial-bench","title":"Eternal Memory Bench — Carved Portrait \u0026 Oak","description":"\u003cp\u003eA memorial bench in solid oak with a hand-carved portrait of your loved one in the backrest — alongside the personal details, symbols and passions that defined them, and birds perched on each armrest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEvery memorial bench tells a story, but this one starts with a face. The portrait is carved from a photograph — the grain of the oak becoming part of the likeness, the wood giving the image a depth and permanence a photo frame can’t match. The bench pictured features a car alongside the portrait, because the person remembered was someone whose connection to a particular vehicle was part of who they were. That kind of specificity — the make, the model, the affection — is exactly what a memorial bench can carry that no other tribute manages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTwo birds on the armrests mark the bench as a place of remembrance. Built from solid oak and finished with three coats of Epifanes matt varnish for all-weather outdoor resilience. Your version is worked out from scratch — portrait, personal details, symbols, inscription. \u003cstrong\u003ePrices include VAT.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid oak throughout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand-carved portrait worked from your photograph — likeness set into the grain of the oak\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePersonalised symbols and motifs — cars, hobbies, emblems, meaningful scenes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo carved birds on the armrests\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustom inscription carved directly into the timber\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree coats Epifanes matt varnish — fully weatherproof\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for gardens, parks, churchyards and memorial spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandmade in Mid Wales\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDimensions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eW140 × D60 × H120cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeat height approx 45cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree seater version available on request\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eYour Version\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSend us a clear photograph and tell us what else belongs on the bench — the hobbies, the passions, the words.
