Textured Cedar Bench with Woven Runner

Pale autumn light bounces off smooth white walls to illuminate a thick cedar bench. A woven table runner with visible nap and seams rests across the center, its threads catching the diffuse glow. The wood grain runs horizontally beneath the fabric, showing deep amber tones and subtle surface imperfections. Soft reflections shimmer on the polished bench edges where the light hits at a low angle. The weave pattern creates a rhythmic texture of raised ridges and shallow valleys, against the smooth, cool surface of the cedar. A small, sharp shadow falls along the right edge where the runner meets the wood, defining the boundary between the soft textile and the hard grain.
