This beautiful French bench has a back that can pivot to become a horizontal surface that can be used as a buffet type table. It also has storage at seat level so it is ideal for an entry piece, too.
Originating from medieval Europe, monks benches were used in monasteries as a practical solution for seating and storage for monks - hence their name. They could be used to stash away books and personal belongings, keeping these buildings clutter-free and allowing monks to live and worship in a tidy space.
