From Italy, this pair of charming limestone garden benches have been hand-carved out of Vicenza limestone. The grey-colored stone has weathered nicely, leading to white, dark grey, and black patinas showing.
A recessed egg and dart molding with leaf tips in the corners adorns the bench tops. Both seating sections rest upon two volute-shaped legs with acanthus leaf embellishments between the whorls. The sides of the sculpted legs consist of a monopodial paw with fluting above a 3 ¼ inch thick rectangular plinth. Our pair of limestone benches with paw feet legs would make fantastic additions to any outdoor landscape design. They can also be placed inside, such as in an entryway or hallway.
*For shipping and transportation, each bench consists of two legs and the seat. We recommend mortaring the three pieces together to enhance the stability of the bench, especially when placed outside.*
CONDITION: Very good condition. Intentional distress marks, presenting as nicks and rubs. Limestone is a natural material that can change color with exposure to the elements. Please contact us for photos of the current patina.
