Item Description
Large Antique Spanish Colonial Carved Hardwood Bench - Late 18th / Early 19th Century A superb and unusually substantial Spanish Colonial carved hardwood bench, dating from the late 18th to early 19th century. At an impressive 260cm (over 8½ feet) wide, this is a particularly large example with real presence. The tall back is richly carved with scrolling fruiting vines and florets, interspersed with rows of finely turned spindles, a decorative treatment repeated across the lower front rail. The substantial plank seat has developed wonderful surface, wear and character through generations of use. Despite its scale, the open spindle construction gives the bench a surprisingly light and architectural appearance. The warm, time-worn hardwood and extensive hand carving make it a striking decorative piece, while its extraordinary width also makes it genuinely practical for seating a crowd. A wonderfully characterful statement piece for a large entrance hall, country house, kitchen, dining room or commercial interior . The wonderful craftsmanship makes this piece very difficult to ignore!
