French Bamboo and Bouclé Two-Seater Bench, 1960s

About the Item

French Bamboo and Bouclé Two-Seater Bench, 1960s A beautifully crafted bamboo two-seater bench from France, dating to the 1960s, this piece is a striking example of mid-century organic modern design. With its gently curved lines and exposed joinery, the frame showcases the natural strength and flexibility of bamboo, a material prized in the post-war design era for its lightness, resilience, and artisanal appeal. This bench features a well-proportioned frame with upward-curving arms and slatted sides and back, held together with traditional bent and wrapped bamboo joints. The warm patina of the bamboo adds character and depth, highlighting its vintage authenticity. The cushions have been newly reupholstered in a high-quality off-white bouclé fabric, giving the piece a fresh and sophisticated update while maintaining harmony with its natural frame. The fabric’s soft texture provides a tactile contrast to the smooth, glossy finish of the bamboo, enhancing both visual and physical comfort. Each cushion is plump, supportive, and perfectly fitted to the frame, allowing for everyday use or elegant lounge seating. Its scale and lightweight construction make this bench ideal for a variety of spaces — from a sunroom or covered terrace to a bohemian-inspired living room or entryway. It comfortably seats two and brings an airy, relaxed feel wherever it’s placed. Unmarked but in the style of French Riviera and colonial bamboo furniture of the 1960s, this bench stands as both a decorative and functional accent piece. It effortlessly bridges modernist and naturalist aesthetics, offering timeless charm with contemporary comfort. Dimensions: Width: 130 cm Depth: 80 cm Height: 71 cm Seat height: 38 cm
