This sculptural bench features a gently curved mahogany frame with softly rounded corners and tapered legs, all executed with the refined craftsmanship for which Dunbar is renowned. The upholstered seat and end panels are finished in a textured blue-green fabric that complements the warm wood tone and highlights the bench’s clean, modern silhouette.

Versatile in form and scale, this piece works beautifully as an entry bench, at the foot of a bed, or as a sculptural accent in a living space. The design exemplifies Wormley’s ability to balance modernism with timeless comfort—quietly confident, never overstated.

A brass Dunbar label affixed to the underside confirms authenticity.
