About the Item
Sturdy, sculptural, and full of character, this antique two-board garden bench was discovered in France and features a cast iron base shaped to resemble tree branches—an organic detail that blends beautifully into outdoor settings. The raw, weathered wooden planks carry years of exposure and use, with layered paint remnants that hint at its long outdoor life.
The cast iron legs have aged to a rich patina, their sinuous form echoing natural limbs, while the simplicity of the seat and backrest allow the artistry of the base to take center stage. Ideal for the garden, porch, or even as indoor seating, this bench balances rustic functionality with whimsical design.
A poetic nod to nature, this piece offers both charm and structure—an enduring relic ready for its next season of life.
