About the Item

Brutalist Patinated Pine Bench by Mobichalet, Belgium, 1950s This exceptional Brutalist pine bench by Belgian maker Mobichalet dates back to the 1950s and embodies the raw, honest design principles of the era. Crafted from solid pine and finished with a beautifully aged patina, the piece stands out for its primitive geometry and expressive character. The design features a bold silhouette with angled legs and a distinctive slanted backrest, resulting in a strong, architectural profile. Visible joinery and rough-hewn tool marks remain intact, celebrating the artisanal quality and intentional simplicity of Brutalist craftsmanship. The pine wood retains its organic essence—minimally processed, with natural grain, knots, and edges left free-flowing and irregular. This bench exudes an earthy, tactile presence and is ideal for relaxed environments such as studios, reading corners, patios, or rustic-modern interiors. It also functions beautifully as a sculptural accent or entryway statement piece, adding warmth and texture to any setting. Whether placed against a minimalist backdrop or within a layered, collected space, it brings authenticity and natural balance. Dimensions: Height: 80 cm / 31.50 in Width: 99 cm / 38.98 in Depth: 33 cm / 12.99 in Seat Height: 43 cm / 16.93 in The bench is in good vintage condition, with age-appropriate wear and a richly developed surface patina that enhances its charm and character.
