Kyokusen Curved Oak Swing Seat Range

The Kyokusen is a sculptural expression of stillness - a handcrafted oak swing seat defined by its gently arched frame and balanced, flowing lines. Inspired by the quiet harmony of Japanese design, it creates a poised focal point in the garden, inviting slow, unhurried moments outdoors. British made in the South West from prime oak and built to live gracefully through the seasons, it is both statement and sanctuary in one.

I ordered a Sitting Spiritually 2-seater swing seat for my wife's special birthday (she’s wanted one since she first saw one in a National Trust garden), and she is delighted. Siobhan was very good in being careful in all correspondence not to break the secret and Martin and Celia themselves delivered and installed it for us. It is really well made and you can feel the care and craftsmanship that has gone into its construction. Customer service was first class, Siobhan kept me informed throughout. Thank you very much, Sitting Spiritually!

"Sitting Spiritually has been a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. They made sure that we got the product we wanted and there was a real sense of personal service and passion for their work. The swing seat is a piece of art in itself, beautifully crafted and made with top quality materials, including the cushions. The swing seat is a real eye catcher and makes a central feature to the garden. Delivery was on time and prompt and set-up expertly performed by a very experienced installer who made sure the seat was just as we wanted it. My only regret is that I did not purchase this lovely swing seat years ago.."

"Deciding where to place our seat to take advantage of the view was the hard bit, everything else from viewing the different seats in Martin's beautiful garden, ordering, receiving photo's of the finished product and delivery and assembly on a very hot day was excellent. Having sat on their seats at RHS gardens we knew the quality and craftsmanship and knew we wouldn't be disappointed."
