About the Item

Bench designed by Inge and Luciano Rubino in 1964 for Apec Italy. Of the few pieces of furniture the Danish/Italian couple designed, this bench is the most iconic and coveted. Long version composed of slatted teakwood with double molded-leather 'wave' seat and black enameled-steel legs (the orientation of the legs is different at each end by design). The teakwood (largely employed in Danish/Scandinavian design) coupled with the form of the piece (which is aesthetically Italian Modernist) yields a perfect marriage reflecting each respective designer's background. New gray leather upholstery. Teak has been refinished. Only light wear remains (namely, a ding to the slatted section, as shown). Smaller model published on page 124 of L'Arredamento Moderno, Settima Serie, Aloi. H: 13.5" x L: 63.75" x 16.5" Leather seat portion: H: 13.5" x L: 36" x D: 16.5" Slatted surface section: H: 13.25" x L: 25.25" x D: 15.5".
