All of our benches are made by hand in Nordic Redwood pine which is a renewable source. It is a relatively soft wood which means we do not have to resort to excessive machining when working the wood. 

Whenever possible we avoid all metal screws, nails and fastenings as we prefer to hand dowel (the exception is the foldable bench)

We finish the wood by applying natural beeswax by hand which gives a wonderful silken honey tone.

CLASSIC MEDITATION BENCH


Our CLASSIC MEDITATION BENCH is what started it all...

We became very interested in the study of mindfulness which included following the 8 week MBSR course pioneered by Jon Kabat-Zinn and offered by Bangor University. As novices to mediation we found that the suggestion in the course notes to use a bench to aid comfort during meditation was a great idea - so we did!

A fortune would have it this came at a time when we had decided that we wanted to offer a variety of products that we could make in our Hereford workshop that would use natural, organic and renewable materials. As a result we decided to develop a series of benches and stools that would be able to help people of all ages, shapes and sizes to enjoy their meditation practice in comfort while, at the same time, employing a grounded posture.

Wood: Nordic Redwood - renewable source

THE T-STOOL MEDITATION STOOL




The T-Stool was designed with economy of materials, weight & space in mind. This provides less support than the other benches and stools and so is meant for practitioners who enjoy a good sense of balance and who are perhaps close to dispensing with supports of any kind.

Like all the other supports it is hand made & finished with our natural beeswax and it can also be altered according to specific requirements provided the overall structure remains the same.


T-Stool: £19.50 + delivery
Wood: Nordic Redwood - renewable source
Finish: Clear natural beeswax - hand applied
NB: wood dowling only - no screws or other metal fastenings
