Iconic and elegant pair of benches featuring a solid and harmonious structure. The finely shaped legs are an essential element of the design: their angled form provides both excellent stability and visual lightness. The overall silhouette displays a perfect balance of elegance and restraint.Crafted between 1960 and 1965 in the Brianza area (Lombardy, Italy) — a region historically renowned for its high-quality furniture production — these benches are the result of exceptional local craftsmanship. The artisans were inspired by the style of Paolo Buffa (1903–1970), reinterpreting his distinctive aesthetic to create two small-scale pieces designed for comfort and intimacy. The result is a timeless design, perfectly aligned with the refined taste of Milan’s bourgeois interiors of the period.The wooden structure has been preserved in its original condition, while the seat has been newly upholstered in a sophisticated cut velvet fabric by Designers Guild. The chosen textile, model Quarenghi-Cocoa, features an elegant geometric pattern and stands among the brand’s most iconic designs (see the original Designers Guild lifestyle photo). The color palette — classic yet reimagined in a contemporary way — enhances the clean lines of the benches, creating a perfectly balanced aesthetic.Founded in 1970 by Tricia Guild, Designers Guild is an international home and lifestyle company headquartered in London, with flagship showrooms on Kings Road and Marylebone High Street, and boutiques worldwide. The brand is celebrated for its luxurious furnishing fabrics, wallpapers, and home accessories distinguished by their striking decorative impact, refined color combinations, and timeless elegance.This pair of benches, tastefully reinterpreted while preserving their authentic character, offers a sophisticated and versatile decorative solution, ideal for both classic and contemporary interiors.Dimensions:Width 56 cm (22.05 in) – Depth 44 cm (17.32 in) – Height 37 cm (14.57 in) – Seat height 37 cm (14.57 in)
