Continuous Arm Bench

Continuous Arm Bench

$3,900.00 - $5,070.00 $3,315.00 - $4,310.00

The Continuous Arm Bench is the extension of a longtime Moser standby – the Continuous Arm Chair. Designed to offer the chair’s comfort in a configuration for two, the Continuous Arm Bench features the same continuous arm, bent into shape using a single flitched and laminated length of cherry or walnut. The original chair took more than two years to perfect – and the bench benefits from Tom Moser’s deliberate development process.

Anatomy of the Continuous Arm Bench

The Seat & Spindles

The Continuous Arm Chair includes a highlight (raised section) that runs around the seat’s back, where the ash spindles join the seat. The spindles extend all the way through the seat and are wedged top and bottom, making them not only aesthetically pleasing but easy to repair, should the need ever arise.

The Arm

The continuous arm is created using flitch-cut cherry or walnut. The process involves quartering and steaming sections of logs, then slicing them into tenth-inch thick strips. The knife cuts produce no sawdust – and thus no waste – and the board’s full strength is preserved.

The Legs

The legs represent the bench’s final distinction. Tom Moser replaced traditional stretchers with curved braces called a ship’s knees. Supportive and strong, the ship’s knee is created from 1/32″ laminated wood that is bent to shape and then set into a slot that is cut and shaped into the leg so it is flush with the surface.

It’s All In the Details

The original chair took more than two years to perfect – and the bench benefits from Tom Moser’s deliberate development process. Its simplicity and strength ensure its lasting beauty for generations of use.
