Brutalist Folk Art Bench, France, 1899
-
Description
This solid wood workbench embodies the raw beauty of 19th-century rural life in Haute-Savoie. Its rough-hewn finish and simple, functional design celebrate the wabi-sabi aesthetic, finding elegance in imperfection. Engraved with "1899," it carries an enduring sense of history and craftsmanship. Once a staple of an alpine farmstead, it tells a story of hardworking hands and timeless practicality. Ideal as a statement piece, it brings warmth and authenticity to any rustic or minimalist setting.
