Influenced by traditional cast iron manufacturing methods, ‘Brut’ references the structural forms of bridges and heavy machinery, adding a beautifully industrial feel to any room it is situated. An elegant balance of powder painted cast iron and solid oak wood, the Brut Bench carries a distinct heaviness, incredibly durable and undoubtedly strong.
Angular in form and easily adapted to an array of contemporary interiors, the Brut Bench is highly suitable to lobbies, cafes and home dining areas, perfectly paired with the Brut Dining Table.
