About the Item

A Japanese antique bench sofa crafted from oak and dating from the 1930s–1940s. The frame has matured into a calm, deep brown tone, beautifully complemented by the light-colored upholstery. With a scale suitable for three people, the piece introduces a gentle yet distinctive presence to any room simply by being placed within it. The seat is upholstered in vintage deadstock fabric, which shows a few storage-related stains. Rather than detracting from its appeal, these marks harmonize with the aged oak frame, creating a characterful pairing that will resonate with those who appreciate the quiet poetry of well-worn materials. The combination of sturdy construction and soft visual nuance gives the sofa a warm, inviting expression rooted in time and use. Additional antique furniture and decorative objects sourced from across Japan are also available upon request.
