Each piece is upholstered in supple, full-grain cognac leather with a warm hand-rubbed patina that will only grow more beautiful with age. The seats are finished with precise rows of antique brass nailhead trim, lending a crisp, masculine detail against the soft, lived-in leather.

Set upon dramatic bobbin-turned legs connected by matching H-stretchers, the frames are finished in a deep, burnished walnut tone. Ball feet and block accents add sculptural weight and a nod to 17th-century Spanish and English design. The generous proportions make them perfect as end-of-bed benches, extra seating, pulled up to a sofa as cocktail tables, or flanking a fireplace. See less
