About the Item

A striking example of Swedish mid-century modern design, this early model “Zink” bench, designed by Roland Wilhelmsson in 1972, showcases a sculptural aesthetic carved from solid pine. Signed "Form; Zink - Ågesta, Jan 1972". The solid pine has developed a rich, warm patina over time, enhancing the natural grain and character of the wood. A beautiful example and a great brutalist object for the modern interior. A warm color and patina that pairs well with the minimalist Scandinavian lifestyle. Scandinavian design is characterized by a minimal, clean approach that seeks to combine functionality with beauty. Its focus is on simple lines and light spaces.
