A Proper Place for Reflection

Description
This handcrafted cherrywood bench pairs clean, sturdy joinery with a handmade textile cushion, bringing furniture and fibre together in one functional work. The warm wood grain contrasts with the soft grey cushion, where black geometric motifs and subtle stitched lines reference quilting traditions. Both practical and refined, the piece highlights the relationship between structure, comfort, and the quiet beauty of handmade details.
