Cedar Looks Log High Back Settee

There's a specific kind of porch evening where nobody is in a hurry to go anywhere. The fire is low, the conversation has found its rhythm, and both people have settled fully into whatever they're sitting in. The Cedar Looks High Back Settee is built for exactly that. Two people, side by side, the high cedar back doing the work of supporting them so they don't have to.

At 39 inches tall, the back reaches head height — the same full support as the High Back Rocker, but in a two-person piece. The smooth Northern White Cedar makes leaning into it comfortable for hours. No rough grain, no sharp edges, no thought required about the chair you're sitting in. At 47 inches wide, both people have real room to settle in without crowding each other.

Use it as the anchor of a porch setup with High Back Rockers on either side and a coffee table in front, and you have a sitting area designed for the long evening rather than the quick visit. The cedar handles the seasons without any maintenance. It will still be there in ten years, looking better for the weathering.

About Log Checking

Northern White Cedar is a living wood, and like any character worth knowing, it has quirks. One of those quirks is called "checking" — the natural process where wood releases moisture and develops surface cracks as it settles. These can range from a hairline sliver to a crack running the full length of a log, and here's the important part: they only ever appear on the surface. They have zero impact on the structural strength or integrity of your furniture.

We think checking gives each piece its own fingerprint. No two settees look exactly alike — that's a feature, not a defect.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is this different from the 4' Settee (B6KD)?

Same two-person width, but the high back (39"H) provides full head and neck support for longer, more relaxed sitting. The 4' Settee (28"H low back) keeps you more upright and conversation-ready.

How many people fit?

Two adults comfortably. At 47" wide, both people have real room without crowding.

Does it need to be painted or sealed?

No. Northern White Cedar is naturally rot and insect resistant. Staining is optional for color maintenance or UV protection only.

What pairs well with this settee?

The High Back Settee works best alongside the High Back Rocker (B5AKD) and a Round Coffee Table (B9 or B10) in front for a complete porch sitting area.
