The Surf




A Sculptural Garden Bench Handmade in Metal and Wood
The Surf is a distinctive modern garden bench designed to be more than ordinary outdoor seating. Its wave-inspired metal base creates a sense of movement and balance, while the solid wood top gives the piece warmth, comfort and natural character.
Each bench is made to order and can be finished in mirror polished stainless steel or one of Chris Bose’s applied metal finishes, including bronze, brass, copper or verdigris. For outdoor use, we recommend durable woods such as Iroko, Oak or Sapele.
Made to order 6-8 Weeks
The bench stand has a wave design steel box-section construction and is available in mirror polished stainless steel or bronze, brass, copper or verdigris metal finished veneer.
The bench top and feet are made from solid wood and we recommend if the bench is for outside use, Iroko, Oak or Sapele. Alternative woods can be requested particularly if for inside use. Finally the wood finish can be in oil, wax or fine lacquer.
Standard bench dimensions (mm) – H 500 | D 500 | L 1700
Mini bench dimensions (mm) – H 425 | D 425 | L 1400

Contemporary Luxury Garden Bench
The Surf is a luxury modern garden bench with strong statement appeal. Designed as one of Chris Bose’s signature pieces, it combines sculptural form with practical seating, making it suitable for contemporary gardens, patios, terraces, poolside areas and outdoor entertaining spaces.
The bench can also work indoors as a distinctive furniture piece for a conservatory, orangery, summer house or garden room. Its clean lines, solid wood top and sculptural metal base allow it to function as both a bench and a striking low table.
A Cantilever-Inspired Sculptural Bench
The Surf has a distinctive form that appears to defy gravity. The sweeping curve of the base reflects the shape and movement of breaking sea waves, while the solid wood top gives a visual reference to a surfer’s board.
This combination of metal and wood creates a piece that feels architectural, contemporary and highly individual, making it ideal for customers looking for outdoor furniture that becomes a focal point rather than simply blending into the background.
Metal Finishes and Wood Options
The Surf is available in mirror polished stainless steel for a cool contemporary appearance, or in applied metal finishes such as aged bronze, copper, brass or verdigris for a warmer and more characterful look.
Applied metal finishes can be sealed to help retain a smart appearance or left unsealed where a more naturally aged surface is preferred. For outdoor use, we recommend durable woods such as Iroko, Oak or Sapele, with the final wood finish available in oil, wax or fine lacquer.
Made to Order in Two Sizes
The Surf is made to order and available in standard and mini sizes. Bespoke adjustments may also be possible depending on the requirement, so please contact us if you would like to discuss a different size, finish or wood choice for your garden or interior space.
