For sale is one antique primitive shaker rush seat bench. It has been in my family for a very long time. It originally came from the Arlington, Vermont area and is hand hewn, with lovely primitive Shaker lines. The wood is a beautiful lighter shade and finely grained. The finish lets that grain show through nicely.

This bench has never been refinished or restored. It is a sturdy, solid, extremely well-crafted bench that will likely be around for another 200 years or longer. <p>
<p>
There are a few areas where the rush seat could use a bit of repair or if the new owner chooses, it could be replaced. Otherwise, it's just very, very old, very well-cared for, very sturdy, and quite charming in its Shaker simpicity. There are very few marks of use or distress and certainly nothing of amy consequence in terms of either appearance or utility. <p>
<p>
Shipping charges will be determined once the shipping destination is known. I can estimate, however, that shipping to most areas other than the West Coast, using FedEx Ground, will be in the range of $40 to $50, including insurance to cover loss or damage in transit for an amount higher than the purchase price, for destinations within the continental US. <p>
<p>
Payment is via personal check or money order. <p>
<p>
Thanks for taking a look at this wonderful Shaker primitive bench. Happy bidding!
