A small, highly designed bench, sculpted from extra-wide solid elm with beautiful grain, a wood that has become rare since Dutch elm disease wiped out all the great elms in France from 1920 onwards.
Ideal for adding character to small entrance halls, alongside a fireplace, or around a coffee table. Traditional mortise-and-tenon joinery.
