About the Item

Benches, solid elm, France, 1970s/80s These French benches from the 1970s-80s express a naturalistic character. A thick free form shaped wooden slab is characterized by free flowing edges. Four splayed legs give the bench a stable, grounded presence. The form reflects both the hand-crafted tradition and the precision of modern design. The material itself plays a central role: the elm’s warm tone, visible knots, and natural variations endow the pieces with an organic quality, further emphasized by the hand-shaped elements. The result is a design that values integrity over ornament, celebrating the inherent beauty of the wood while maintaining a clear, purposeful geometry. This approach reflects the work of the artist Henri Bataille. The listed price is per item.
