Alabaster Reclaimed wood Bench

Alabaster Reclaimed wood Bench | Online8 New Zealand

Around 80 years of history, rebuilt for your home — the Alabaster is a compact reclaimed timber bench built from wood repurposed from the support beams of disused buildings. Because the timber has already spent decades under load, it is seasoned and dimensionally stable in a way new stock is not. At 80cm it works as a hallway statement, a guest room stand, or a landing spot for folded linen. Natural variation in colour, grain and markings is expected, so every bench is one of a kind.

Why It Stands Apart

• Reclaimed Timber (~80 years old): Repurposed structural building beams — seasoned, stable and full of character.
• Robust Joinery: Strong construction built to stay reliable for years.
• Genuine Imperfections: Surface cracks and knots that give it a real sense of history.
• Compact 80cm: Fits a hallway, a guest room, or the foot of a single bed.
• Versatile Use: Seating, a plant or book stand, or a spot for folded blankets.

Frequently Asked Questions

The timber is around 80 years old and genuinely reclaimed from building support beams, so natural variation in colour, grain and markings — along with small surface cracks and knots — is expected and makes each bench unique.

Will it look exactly like the photos?
No. Reclaimed timber varies in colour, grain and markings, and small surface cracks and knots are part of its distressed, authentic nature.

Where does it work best?
Hallways and entryways, guest rooms, or as a stand for plants, books or folded blankets.

What style of interior does it suit?
Rustic, industrial, modern and traditional settings.
