Blue Spruce Joinery the ones in the picture look to be 1 1/4.. you could potentially get them in any width.

What Houzz contributors are saying:
added by Bud Dietrich, AIA to Off the Beaten Path: Delightful Alcove Spaces
This alcove is also a perch. Built for a small child, another place to watch the world go by, curl up with a book or take a nap. Certainly a nice place for a time out.
added by Shoshana Gosselin to Cuddly Nooks for Every Room
An alcove way up high. Who says window seats have to be chair-level? Climbing a short ladder up to this fun window seat separates you from everyone and everywhere else. I would feel like a little bird perched in my nest.
added by Bud Dietrich, AIA to 10 Elements of the Just-Right House
Even in the most unlikely of places.
