Painted wood has been popular in Swedish furniture for several centuries, dating back to when local carpentry was painted to resemble French furniture. Paradoxically, painted wooden furniture later became Swedish hallmark. This bench, like the painted table, armchairs and benches in the Hjorthagen family, make elements of this style durable enough for the outdoors. Material: The bench is made in oiled oak, or alternatively, painted pine. The seat and backrest are made in profile-planed glulam. Plastic feet are provided for the legs. The standard colours for the painted pine are yellow NCS S 3060-Y20R, white NCS S 0502-Y, Green NCS S 8010-B90G and reddish-brown NCS S 4550-Y80R. Measurements: Length: 186 cm. Depth: 55 cm. Height: 46 / 89 cm. Weight: 22 kg. Seat: 32 mm × 192 mm.
The benches, armchair and table in the Hjorthagen furniture group are the perfect combination of traditional garden furniture and contemporary outdoor design. Each piece is crafted in wood, honouring the long tradition of craftsmanship that characterises Scandinavian wood furniture. The Hjorthagen furniture group reinvents traditional painted wooden furniture in a durable outdoor style that lends an element of refined craftsmanship to any setting.
