A brief history of the bench
Emerging in the 17th century, the bench is an elegant, upholstered version of the seat, designed for the living rooms of high society. Unlike a sofa, it is distinguished by the absence of a backrest or armrests, favoring an airy silhouette and a Louis XVI or Empire style. Whether called a "piano bench" or "end-of-bed bench," it is now part of a boudoir or vintage aesthetic and remains the ideal piece for dressing up a window or entryway.
