Rideau Emerald Storage Bench

This bench is upholstered in a cotton fabric with a trend-setting terrazzo print. Based on our expertise with natural fibers, we recommend regular maintenance using a soft cloth or a vacuum with an upholstery attachment to remove dust. For stains, use a mild soap and water solution, blotting gently rather than rubbing to preserve the fabric's texture and vibrant emerald color. Always test any cleaner on a small, inconspicuous area first to ensure colorfastness.

This bench features a hinged seat that opens to reveal a "perfectly proportioned" storage compartment. Measuring 39 inches in width, it is an efficient solution for stashing extra throw blankets, seasonal pillows, or entryway essentials like scarves and bags. Its compact 19-inch depth makes it particularly well-suited for narrow urban apartment foyers or hallways where maximizing hidden storage is a priority.

Every Rideau bench is handcrafted in Illinois, USA, ensuring a high level of craftsmanship and attention to detail. The design features classic mid-century elements, including crisp lines and sturdy tapered legs that provide a stable base for seating. This "made to order" approach reflects a commitment to quality and durability, ensuring each piece is built specifically to meet high standards of domestic manufacturing.

Yes, the 19-inch height of this bench is a standard dimension that pairs excellently with most modern bed frames. For a balanced aesthetic at the foot of the bed, design experts typically recommend a bench that sits a few inches lower than the mattress. Its 39-inch width makes it an ideal fit for full-sized beds or a centered accent for queen-sized frames, providing functional seating without overwhelming the room's proportions.

Absolutely. While it serves as an excellent storage solution, this piece is engineered as a functional "cushion seat" bench. The handcrafted frame and tapered leg style are designed to support the weight of an adult, making it a reliable choice for extra guest seating in a living room or a stable, daily-use spot for putting on shoes in a foyer or mudroom.

To provide a unique, fashion-forward piece, this bench is made to order rather than mass-produced. Each unit is individually handcrafted in the USA, a process that typically takes up to 6 weeks. This dedicated timeframe allows for careful upholstery of the terrazzo print and structural assembly, ensuring you receive a high-quality, custom-feeling item that hasn't been sitting in a warehouse.
