Large French Arras Iron Painted Garden Bench
1 of 6
An Exceptional Early 20th-Century Large French Green Painted Wrought Iron Garden Bench by Grassin Arras.
This superb French wrought iron garden bench, attributed to the renowned Grassin Arras, dates from the early 20th century. Its design exemplifies the elegance and functionality of classic French garden antique furniture.
The bench features expertly crafted wrought iron straps, curved at the ends in a typical Arras style, ensuring a remarkably comfortable sitting position. The beautifully shaped arms are adorned with scrollwork, while the substantially splayed legs terminate in distinctive cast hoof feet. The seat height is a practical 43 cm, making it ideal for both comfort and aesthetics.
The piece boasts an iconic rounded hollow wrought iron construction, reflecting the ingenuity of the mid-19th-century French design that inspired it. Originally developed to meet the demands of the expanding Paris park system, this demi-tube style became celebrated for its sturdy, lightweight, and easily movable qualities. The Arras foundry, located in the town of Arras, became the leading producer of this elegant and practical antique furniture style, which quickly gained popularity in private gardens and homes.
With its rich patina, timeless design, and exceptional craftsmanship, this three-seater bench would be a delightful addition to any garden setting.
