A dining table gains character the moment a live-edge piece joins it, and the Ledger I Bench is built for exactly that moment. A solid wood top keeps its raw, natural edge intact, while plank-style legs clad in metal ground the piece in an industrial, urban-loft sensibility. It is suited to a dining table, kitchen island, or communal table that wants texture with real structure.

The tabletop retains its live edge, so the natural contour, grain, and character of the solid wood remain visible rather than machined away, meaning every bench carries its own individual grain pattern. A lacquer-polished finish protects the surface's look while keeping the raw-edge texture underfoot and underhand. The two plank-style legs are wrapped in metal cladding for reinforced strength, and the frame is rated to support up to 300 lbs, standing up to the daily wear of communal dining.

Ledger I arrives requiring assembly, with an Allen key and wrench included and legs designed to be removed for easier setup or transport; two people can complete assembly in about 10 minutes. Mercana backs the piece with a 90-day product warranty for residential use, and because the top is a solid, live-edge wood, natural variation in grain, color, and edge contour between individual benches is expected and part of its appeal.
