{"product_id":"products-handcrafted-memorial-benches","title":"Handcrafted Wooden Memorial Benches — Made in Wales","description":"\u003cp\u003eEvery memorial bench we’ve ever made is shown in the gallery above — owls, tigers, kingfishers, unicorns, dogs, deer, cars, fish, moons, hearts, rugby roses, superhero lightning bolts. The full breadth of what it means to make furniture that belongs to someone specific.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe process is the same for every commission: we ask who the bench is for, what carving feels right, where it will go, what the inscription should say. Then our carver draws it up — sometimes on the first try, sometimes through several rounds until it’s exactly right — and we share the design with you before anything goes into the timber. Schools, families, community groups and councils have all commissioned through this page. The benches go into parks, riverside gardens, churchyards, school playgrounds, beaches and village greens. Some are for people. Some are for animals. Some are for places — a century-old orchard, a Welsh coastal lighthouse, a school where a cat once lived. All of them are particular.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAll benches are made from solid oak and finished with three coats of Epifanes matt varnish for year-round outdoor resilience. Schools can order on a purchase order; we’ll invoice once confirmed. \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 — every commission\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBespoke carving from your brief — portraits, animals, hobbies, emblems, places\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePersonalised inscription carved directly into the timber — no plaques, no metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree coats Epifanes matt varnish — fully weatherproof for year-round outdoor use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo seater (140cm) or three seater (160cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for gardens, schools, parks, churchyards, riversides and public 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\u003eTwo seater: W140 × D60 × H120cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree seater: W160 × D60 × H120cm (approx)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeat height approx 45cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBespoke dimensions available on request\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eYour Version\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBrowse the gallery for inspiration, then tell us who the bench is for and what should be carved in.
