About the Item

19Th Century, Italian Garden Wood and Wrought Iron Bench with Cloth Canopy This rare garden bench was made in Italy in the 19th Century. The structure is made of wrought iron. The seat consists of two wooden planks. The backrest, inclined to make the support comfortable, has a wooden board supported by iron elements. This particular wall bar can be tilted, in order to offer an opposable seat depending on the sun exposure. The legs of the bench have a soft and graceful design, with circular iron elements that connect in the center and between the two feet. On the sides of the seat there are other elements in iron, wavy and sinuous, which converge in the center, on which is inserted the structure that makes up the canopy. This is covered with white and yellow striped fabric with pelmets on both sides. The tent is retractable, with a reel system, which allows both partial opening and complete closure. Wrought iron is considered the best material for outdoor use due to its durability, lightness of image and ductility compared to other metals. The term " Wrought " means worked by hand, unlike cast iron, produced with moulds. The handmade wrought iron furniture is characterized by a characteristic almost ethereal and extremely elegant appearance. Very rare to find on the antiques market, the bench is an outdoor element capable of conferring, with great decoration, refinement to environments, such as porches, gardens, terraces, still perfectly usable to benefit from a moment of quiet.
