A little history of the bench
Did you know that the word "banquet" comes directly from the bench? Since the Middle Ages, this convivial piece of furniture brought guests together around large lordly tables. Whether in a chic country or industrial style, it stands out for its communal seating and robust character. Sometimes called a "farmhouse bench" or "settle," it fits into a rustic or vintage aesthetic depending on its patina. Today, it finds its place in an entryway or around a modern table to offer generous seating and a touch of character.
