This is a very unusual quarter sawn oak bench that is done in the style referred to as a Tet A Tet Bench. Notice how there is two places for people to sit on this bench and instead of sitting in the traditional position of side by side looking out the same way, with this bench you still sit side by side but you are looking in opposite directions
