Tessin

Park Bench

The gardens designed by seventeenth-century Swedish architect Nicodemus Tessin number among his greatest achievements. Although none of the garden benches from Tessin’s era survive today, this elegant park bench emulates the architect’s unmistakable style. This park bench is a popular choice for formal gardens, or to be placed among classical statues. It can be found in parks with symmetrical terraces, and on avenues flanked by lines of trees. On the accessible variant, the armrests extend further and it also has a slightly higher seat height.

Pine

Nola's pine is of high quality and comes from sustainable forestry. Pine is an environmentally friendly, domestically produced material. Damaged or untreated pine is quite easily attacked by decomposition processes; therefore, it is particularly important to repair damaged surfaces.

Mahogany - FSC-certified

FSC-marked mahogany is a wood with good durability in the outdoor environment. In addition, it retains its color tone better than, for example, oak and teak. Mahogany lives and moves, sometimes more than teak.

Oak

Oak is a heavy, hard and medium tough wood. Moderately dimensionally stable in case of moisture changes. Oak wood blackens if it is exposed to moisture or wetness for a long time. However, it does not affect the other properties of the wood. Thanks to its hardness and toughness, the oak wood is suitable for furniture and other use in exposed environments.

Wood oil

Wood oil provides good protection against the stresses of the outdoor climate and at the same time highlights the wood's natural appearance and properties.

Water-based glaze

Varnishing of wood is done with a water-based varnish. A water-based paint that is kinder to the environment. Under normal use, the paint has a good wear resistance and long durability.

Cast iron

Cast iron is iron with a carbon content between approximately 2 and 4 percent with a large proportion of recycled material. Compared to steel, it has a lower melting point and is therefore easier to melt and requires less energy. Thanks to the high carbon content, so-called graphite is formed. This is the main reason why cast iron, unlike steel, does not rust as quickly and thus has a very long life cycle.

Freestanding

Freestanding product that is placed directly on the ground.

Surface mount

Can be bolted above ground, to the floor or to a cast-in-place foundation. Bolts not included.

Fully assembled.

Oiled oak

Oiled oak should be oiled twice a year for best protection. Good maintenance can never completely prevent stains from occurring, but oak that is not maintained will turn blacker and turn gray faster, but it still has a very long life. When re-oiling products, a finely boiled oil that penetrates the wood should be chosen over a film-forming oil. Black stains on oiled oak can be removed with oxalic acid.

Oiled mahogany

Oiled mahogany should be oiled two times a year.

Water-based glazed pine

Products in varnished pine must be maintained regularly with alkyd paint. Maintenance intervals approximately 1 time per year. Damage and cracks should be repaired immediately. Touch-up paints in spray packaging are available in standard colors to order.

Cast iron

Untreated cast iron eventually rusts, but this does not affect its durability. Products in cast iron that are anti-rust treated and painted black should, however, be touch-up painted and maintained, at regular intervals, if necessary or in case of possible damage, with alkyd paint.

Available in alkyd oil enamelled pine or oiled oak. Other types of wood available upon request.

This sophisticated backed bench recalls the elegance of 17th-century gardens. It is a perfect choice for historic districts or classical architecture.
