Description
This Cansado Bench, designed by Charlotte Perriand in 1954, is crafted from solid oak with an enameled steel base, balancing warmth with industrial strength. The parallel wood slats create a rhythmic, architectural presence, while the patinated metal frame adds depth and character. Signs of age and wear celebrate the authenticity of the piece, embracing the wabi-sabi philosophy of imperfection and impermanence. With its versatile design, it functions as a bench, coffee table, or even a sculptural room divider. Whether placed in a living space, hallway, or outdoor setting, this timeless piece brings an understated sophistication to any environment.
