Rare Prototype Leather Bench by Max Gottschalk

About the Item

The Max Gottschalk prototype bench is a striking fusion of industrial and natural elements. Crafted from supple leather, sturdy steel, and warm wood, it embodies both strength and sophistication. Its sleek curved steel frame provides structural support, while the smooth thick leather adds a touch of luxury. The connecting legs allow adjustability to the seat angle and stance. Also featuring an inflatable inner tube for additional backrest support if desired. The wooden accent, integrated into the design, lends an angular charm, creating a harmonious balance between modernity and tradition. This bench is not just a piece of furniture; it's truly a unique functional work of art, perfect for both contemporary and classic interiors.
