Ethnic bench 140x45x45cm

The ethnic bench is 140 cm long, 45 cm deep and 45 cm high.

It is a very decorative and functional bench. It has a custom-made solid wood structure, sturdy enough to seat two or three people.

The ethnic carpet with which it is upholstered is hand-woven in the South American Altiplano, between 3000 and 5000 meters above sea level. It has been woven on a wooden loom that is tied at one end to a pole and at the other end to the weaver’s waist. An alpaca bone has been used to braid the wool to make the drawings (cross and diamonds in orange and green). Being such a manual work, it may present small irregularities and “perfect imperfections”.

The looms are made of 100% sheep’s wool dyed with natural pigments. Its color may vary and it is sensitive to direct light.
