About the Item

Imagine this pretty little 19th century oak bench in a kitchen, a hallway or on the patio. It can be used from both sides by flipping the backrest, these flip benches are also known as Banc à tournis or Strycsitten. These benches were very popular in small houses in front of a fireplace.
