Check this out. And here’s another that’s 4 ft. long instead of 5. They might be somewhat low to the ground for your tastes (which is the case for me with many tv stands, for example at IKEA), but they’re based on a legit classic design. If you’re handy, or know someone who is, maybe you could replace or somehow lengthen the legs? Or maybe put something sturdy, like a nice wooden box, on top of the bench and under your television’s base? Anyway, FYI, I found these by googling “George Nelson platform bench knockoff replica”.
If you're a fan of woodworking but not quite ready for this project (and you don't know of a local craftsman you can commission to build one) , I can heartily recommend this reproduction of a Nelson bench for about $150. Easy to assemble and much sturdier than I was expecting when I bought it.
