About the Item
Augusto Romano, bench, beech, braided straw, Italy, circa 1948
A rare side bench designed by Italian designer Augusto Romano around 1948. A well-executed design that features a frame in wood with a border that is meticulously adorned with braided straw. The elegantly bent frame catches the eye, and the naturalistic properties of the straw are a perfect fit as a combination of materials used. Romano skillfully interweaved a captivating interplay of materials and textures.
