  • Notes from Sylvie:

    Dear collector, this bench has a 'wood live edge' at the top of the back that has some minor damage and the bench has a slight wobble.

Sourced from the picturesque Cévennes region in southern France, known for its traditional stone villages and ancient farms, this bench carries the soul of its surroundings. Originally found in a 19th-century church, We discovered this piece in a sleepy antique store near Avignon. The live-edge wood detail on the seat back hints at its rustic origins, and though it has a slight wobble, this only adds to its timeworn character.
