Description
The Highgate Weathered Oak Small Bench boasts an eye-catching combination of framed oak veneer panel and solid beech. This is contrasted with “peppercorn” finished solid ash “A” frame legs, giving the range a notably contemporary edge. Gently curved “barrel shaped” tabletops and cabinet facias soften the feel of the range and makes for a more engaging and appealing look. Pairs well with The Highgate Weathered Oak Dining Table.

Our Stylist Says
I really like the weathered oak bench because of its versatile and understated appeal, making it a great addition to both traditional and modern interiors. Its compact size and practical design make it ideal for use at the foot of the bed, in a hallway, or as extra seating in a dining room. The mix of weathered oak with black legs adds a subtle rustic charm that can soften sharper interior styles or complement other natural textures. For styling tips, consider pairing it with cushions or throws to add colour and comfort or using it to display plants or books for a relaxed, lived-in look. It’s robust yet simple, making it a flexible piece that can adapt to a variety of interior themes.

About Arighi Bianchi
Founded in 1854 by Italian craftsmen Antonio Arighi and Antonio Bianchi, Arighi Bianchi is one of the UK's oldest and most established furniture and interiors retailers. What began as a small workshop producing clocks and cabinets in Macclesfield has evolved over more than 170 years into a destination for premium home furnishings, combining heritage craftsmanship with contemporary design.
At the heart of the brand is its iconic four-storey showroom in Macclesfield - a Grade II* listed building inspired by the Crystal Palace - which has become a destination for interior enthusiasts across the UK. Over generations, the family-run business has built a reputation for quality, even supplying furniture to British royalty in its early years.
Today, Arighi Bianchi offers far more than furniture. Its collections span sofas, dining furniture, beds, lighting, flooring, soft furnishings and accessories, alongside carefully selected brands such as Vispring, Ercol and Stressless. This curated, multi-brand approach allows customers to create cohesive interiors that blend timeless elegance with contemporary style.
In recent years, Arighi Bianchi has evolved beyond traditional retail into a broader lifestyle experience - incorporating in-store design inspiration, curated accessory spaces and even a café to create a more immersive shopping environment. This shift reflects a modern focus on experiential retail, appealing to a new generation of homeowners while staying true to its heritage.
Still run by the founding family five generations on, Arighi Bianchi continues to balance tradition with innovation. Its long history, commitment to quality and carefully curated product range make it a trusted destination for those looking to invest in furniture and homeware designed to last.
