Ash & Ember Solstice Brown teak bench | sku-8514958315

The Ash & Ember Solstice 5 FT bow-back outdoor bench is a Brown Shop All Patio Furniture listing (sku-8514958315; UPC 840009231834). Its title says it seats 2 people, while the description says it seats three adults. Made from Grade A center-cut teak, it has natural oil, even coloring, a hand-sanded finish, a contoured seat and a curved, slatted back that lets heat escape.

The bench has wooden dowels and brass hardware and can be used on a porch, patio, deck or in a garden. The wood starts golden-brown and develops a silvery patina if left untreated. Seasonal teak oil can help retain the original color, or another finish can be applied. Its natural oils resist rain, snow, sun, wind, humidity and salt spray.

The listing says it can remain outside in winter without a cover and resists peeling, chipping, splintering, cracking and decay.
