Make it yours today. ---Dimensions--- Width: 72 in / 182.88 cm Depth: 18 in / 45.72 cm Height: 16 in / 40.64 cm This minimalist slatted bench is in 100% original, vintage condition and has aged to perfection! The solid European walnut composition is in remarkably good shape given it's age showing only the minor patina of a piece both beloved and utilized. There are some minor surface scratches present (which can be seen in the detail photos provided) as well as few slats that are slightly bowed (also shown in the detail photos provided) and a general light patina. With that said the wood is overall in very good condition and there are no cracks, gouges or stains present whatsoever. This gorgeous bench is functional, structurally sound and ready for decades more of use. Please view all photos and videos for details on this archetypal Mid-Century Modern bench's current condition.
