Take a Seat, There's Room for Your Things Too
Make your hallway or entryway more useful with the Vienna Oak Telephone Bench, combining a wooden seat, drawer storage and a compact side cabinet in one piece of furniture. Crafted from American oak with a natural finish, the bench showcases the distinctive grain patterns and warm colouring of the timber. Its traditional design features a framed backrest, a sturdy armrest on one side and substantial wooden legs, giving you a convenient place to sit while putting on shoes or getting ready to head out. The adjoining cabinet provides a raised surface for a telephone, lamp or everyday essentials, making good use of space that might otherwise require a separate side table.
Beneath the seat sits a deep storage drawer, offering room for shoes, scarves, gloves and other belongings you want to keep close to the entrance. Two antique-style metal drop handles provide access to the drawer, while its traditional dovetail-jointed construction helps reinforce the corners and maintain their shape through regular use. The drawer operates on a runner-less wooden design, allowing it to slide open without relying on metal mechanisms. Alongside the seating area, the adjoining cabinet features an open upper compartment for frequently used items such as keys, mail or reading glasses, with a lower cupboard providing additional concealed storage for larger household essentials.
Solid timber construction gives the bench its sturdy frame, with tongue and groove panelling reinforcing the back and internal cabinet structure. The wooden seat provides a practical sitting surface, while the framed backrest and armrest offer additional support. The side cupboard features a recessed panel door fitted with metal hinges and a dark round knob, complementing the antique-style drawer handles beneath the seat. With its combination of seating, open shelving, a deep drawer and enclosed cupboard storage, the Vienna Oak Telephone Bench is particularly useful in hallways, entrance areas and other spaces where seating and storage are both needed.
