18th Century Catalan Settle Bench

18th Century Catalan Settle Bench
A charming and authentic 18th-century Catalan settle bench, crafted circa 1750 IN SPAIN from solid fruitwood. This primitive piece features elegantly shaped ends, warm natural tones, and a fabulous aged patina that reflects its long history.

One of its most distinctive features is the arched backrest, which gracefully curves upward to form a closed canopy over the head, creating a sheltered and intimate feel. This architectural detail not only adds visual impact but also enhances the bench’s historical charm.

The bench includes two built-in storage compartments beneath lift-up seats, offering practical space for daily use. It also comes with an optional newly reupholstered cushion for added comfort — though not essential, it provides extra softness if desired.

Sturdy, comfortable, and full of character, this piece is ideal for a country house or townhouse, and fits beautifully in a kitchen, hallway, or mudroom.
