Marly
Featured in the authoritative treatise on furniture making, L’Art du menuisier, written by the cabinetmaker André-Jacob Roubo (1739-1791), the Marly bench was an integral part of parks and French gardens, which would come alive at dusk on feast days celebrated during the Age of Enlightenment, — scenes immortalised in the paintings of Hubert Robert, and destined for a long life outdoors.
A bench that illustrates Tectona's know-how
The Marly bench, a woodworking masterpiece, pays tribute to French classicism. It blends seamlessly into the landscape thanks to the perfect equilibrium between the dimensions. The verticals of the backrest resemble balusters while the S-arched armrests feature a moulding at their end: elegant touches that make this bench extraordinary!
