About the Item

This rustic bench, crafted in the Netherlands sometime in the 1950s, showcases the clean lines and natural materials that are evocative of Martin Visser's influential work. Crafted from solid oak, the bench features a robust and unpretentious frame, highlighting the beauty of the wood's natural grain. The dark, aged patina of the oak speaks to its history and adds a layer of character. The shelf at the underside of the seat offers a useful storage spot, while also hinting at its past use in a place of communal gathering. The seats are constructed from woven rush, a traditional material that adds a touch of rustic charm and tactile warmth. The woven pattern creates a visually appealing contrast with the solid oak frame, while also providing a comfortable and supportive seating surface.
