Description
This appears to be a custom fabrication of some kind dating to the mid/late 20th century. The base is a solid steel/iron bar. Very heavy and structurally sound. It has drill holes in it where screws mount a large seat cushion. Pease note the dimensions because it may be necessary to make adjustments to the given piece.
The base alone could support a large piece of marble and possibly be used as a long architectural table base. Either a Low Console Table or a Coffee Table. Pending height requirements could modify to fit needs or leave as is and just replace the cushion top with a table top.
I believe as it is, it is to tall to be a bench to sit on. If used as a bench, I think the feet would need to be trimmed to a nicer height specification after deciding on height of upholstered section. This should be an easy thing for any metal shop to handle. These are the dimensions of the pieces.
61 7/8" wide x 20" deep.
height of the metal base alone is: 18.125"
height of the seat cushion as upholstered is 4.5"
it is a wonderfully constructed form, but please note it is heavy and very durable as it stands.
