About

This antique garden bench was crafted in France circa 1920 and offers a bold silhouette with utilitarian charm. Constructed from perforated sheet iron, the bench features a sleek, continuous curve across the seat and backrest, providing both ergonomic comfort and visual rhythm. The minimalist form is supported by splayed iron legs, adding structural stability and architectural presence. The surface retains its original painted finish, now beautifully worn with soft lavender tones and subtle green undertones peeking through. This naturally distressed purple patina creates a richly layered effect that reflects decades of outdoor use and adds authentic vintage character. In excellent condition commensurate with age and use, this antique bench is perfect for a garden, patio, or covered terrace, and also makes a sculptural statement indoors in a loft or industrial-style interior. A functional and distinctive piece of early 20th-century French design. 78.75″W x 28″D x 28″H
