Faux bois, the French term for “false wood", is an apt description for this handsome furniture that resembles sculpture. It is handmade using reinforced cast concrete over steel frames. The pieces weigh up to 300 lbs., so they are a good choice for high-wind locations and places prone to theft. White Glove Service included. Variations in color may occur, and the bench will darken over time. Please note: Hairline cracks are normal and do not affect the structural integrity of this furniture. If this is not acceptable for aesthetic or other reasons, we recommend that you buy furniture of a different material. Contact our Furniture Specialist with any questions at 877-422-9688.
