A rustic wooden bench or stool, crafted using traditional methods, whose aesthetic pays tribute to simplicity and the passage of time. Its beautiful and distinctive Wabi-Sabi style, which honors the humble and the transient, is the verifiable result of decades of use and honest work, evident in the original patina that only time can bestow. The solid and robust wood, humble in nature, displays a deep texture with characteristic natural knots, small fissures, and gentle wear on the edges. These visible imperfections and wear give the piece its character and faithfully document its long history of use. The construction is remarkably simple and functional, typical of workshop furniture or furniture used for demanding daily tasks. It consists of a rectangular seat supported by two side legs with a subtle openwork design on their lower section, joined by horizontal crossbars that provide stability. A distinctive and functional detail is the central circular hole carved into the lower horizontal crossbar, which would have been used by the artisan for specific tasks related to their craft. The assembly was carried out using thick, antique iron nails, visible on the surface, which solidify the structure and add an honest and raw construction detail to the piece. See less
