It sits proudly with the kind of originality that some love and others do not wish to understand. We would assume that this one originates from the “sticks” rather than having been born a “towny”!
The bench has enjoyed a full life – the black material a kind of thick Rexine which covers the arms and back is worn with splits, smooth in places, crusty in others and held on by the original hexagonal brass studs. We would assume that the bench has lived close to a fire during its life which has resulted in a fascinating craquelure forming on the thick set turned legs and to the front.
The bench is well crafted from stained pine with a firm frame, no wobbles and comes with a set of three feather filled “Kilim design” cushions, a newer addition no doubt.
We would love to believe this one started life in a village tavern, sitting next to a roaring fire, enjoying a hectic life, the custodian of many a village secret – who knows?. Would look smashing in a hallway or commercial space.
A very interesting, much enjoyed and tactile piece showing its age splendidly.
Dimensions – Overall: Height 90cm x Width 198cm x Depth 64.5cm
Dimensions – Specifically the Seat: Height 38cm x Depth 176cm x Depth 51cm
