About the Item

The revised text is now complete, so please translate it faithfully into English. This is a bench that has been remade from old wooden tools created around the 20th century. The exact place of origin is unknown, but given that furniture made from old wood is popular in Southeast Asia and other regions, it is thought to have been made in one of those countries. The seat is carved from a thick wooden board, hollowed out, and made from a part of an old tool that was once used as a bucket. The unique, weathered texture from years of use gives it a charming, rustic appearance. The legs are made from wood that was once used as part of a waterwheel's gears, and the weathered appearance of the wood evokes a sense of wabi-sabi. All parts are made from hardwood, so the bench is sturdy. The seat is carved into a gentle arch shape, making it comfortable and practical to sit on. The overall appeal of the dried wood texture is charming, and this piece is especially recommended for those who appreciate the natural flavor of old wood. Weighing 15.25 kg, it has a solid weight and excellent stability. This design combines the materials of historical antique tools with a warm style that blends seamlessly into modern life. Please consider it as an accent piece for your interior or as a special chair. Weight: 15.25 kg Dimensions: Width 77.3 cm × Depth 48 cm × Height 45.5 cm (Seat depth 30–32 cm) Item Number: CH053
