The re-issue, in 2006, of the bench that had belonged to Madeleine Castaing highlights Tectona's close ties to the history of design. The "great lady of decoration", muse and patron of Chaïm Soutine, chose this perfectly proportioned restoration bench for her garden. A sign of the times, the bench is now considerably lighter, since it is now fabricated from aluminium. The use of this corrosion-proof material, consistent with the creation of a line also including an armchair, a chair and a table, was the only formal significant modification of this bench.
A scooped seat and elegant back make this Japanese inspired 54" bench a perfect complement to the finest garden designs. It beautifully accompanies the MANDALAY dining and deep seating groups.
