{"product_id":"sculptural-bench-by-olavi-hanninen-for-aranjou-france-1950s","title":"Sculptural Bench by Olavi Hanninen for Aranjou, France 1950s","description":"A rare and sculptural bench attributed to Olavi Hänninen and produced by Aranjou in France during the 1950s. This expressive piece beautifully embodies the organic modernism that characterizes French post-war design. Made out from solid stained elm, the bench showcases exceptional hand-shaped detailing. The gently undulating backrest, subtly curved supports, and faceted, splayed legs create a dynamic yet harmonious silhouette. The seat highlights the rich and lively grain of the elm, further enhancing its sculptural presence. The piece reveals a thoughtful architectural approach and a masterful handling of material, resulting in a harmonious balance between structure and sculptural form. Both functional and artistic, it stands equally strong as a seating piece or as a statement object within an interior. Presented in good, original condition with minor wear consistent with age and use. A refined example of mid-century French craftsmanship.","brand":"Modern Living","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56888655347977,"sku":null,"price":2656.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0671\/5290\/4457\/files\/t7rnyz6a57mpgn7eyjwx.jpg?v=1773740103","url":"https:\/\/oblist.com\/products\/sculptural-bench-by-olavi-hanninen-for-aranjou-france-1950s","provider":"The Oblist","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
