The leather seat is framed with classic nail head trim and rests on elegantly turned wooden legs, showcasing the restrained craftsmanship and timeless design associated with Scandinavian furniture of the period (c. 1940). Both versatile and refined, this bench works effortlessly at the foot of a bed, in an entry hall or as additional seating in a living space.
