Oak Bench by Edward Durell Stone for Fulbright Furniture

About the Item

This rare bench was designed in the 1940s by the noted architect, Edward Durell Stone for Fulbright Furniture. This example bears a remarkable patina, as it was likely used outdoors, and the oak has naturally darkened from weathering the elements. The bench, in its naturally aged condition, is structurally sound; it has not been refinished. Source: 'Edward Durell Stone: The Evolution of an Architect,' Stone, pg. 103 Wright Modern Design March 31. 2011 Lot #193.
