Med. Hammered Antq. Bronze Vaisseau Ottoman – Long Storage Bench, Handmade
By Paul Mathieu (French)
Located in New York, NY
The Long Vaisseau Bench works as an ottoman at a scale that most ottomans cannot reach: 96 inches wide, in Medium Hammered Antiqued White Bronze metal, with the arching hourglass profile that Paul Mathieu derived from the metal-clad storage furniture of India. The lid opens to a teak-lined interior with a removable inset tray. At 17 inches, the height is correct for a footrest or additional seating. In Medium Hammered Antiqued White Bronze, it is also an object that a room is composed around.
The wood box is constructed to the arching profile before Medium Hammered Antiqued White Bronze metal sheets are pattern-cut and fitted by hand across its full length. The sides narrow at the waist and flare at each end; the metal is fitted in sections, each secured with flush-set nails. The lid is hinged and fitted in the same Medium Hammered Antiqued White Bronze metal. Interior: teak-lined with removable tray.
Measures 96 by 16 by 17 inches. Functions as a long ottoman, storage bench, blanket chest, or bedfoot piece. Hinged lid with removable interior tray. Available in all twelve standard finishes. Custom sizing available. Made entirely to order.
