painted farmhouse bench

The painted farmhouse bench is a rare piece of furniture – especially benches with storage space, so-called chest benches. The front and the lid are painted with warm colors and hearty motifs. The painting has been traced once and is wonderfully successful. The sturdy plinth is discreetly contoured. The lid is attached with wrought iron bands. The softwood chest bench is around 200 years old. The bench is a charming piece of provincial furniture that is a joy to use.
