A refined pair of Italian benches attributed to Guglielmo Ulrich, dating to the 1940s, embodying the designer’s distinctive balance between structural lightness and sculptural elegance. Crafted in luminous blonde maple, the frames are defined by slender tapered legs and a gently curved backrest that appears to float with graceful tension between the uprights. The continuous, sinuous rear element — subtly arched and softly rounded at the corners — recalls Ulrich’s celebrated seating designs of the period, where rationalist clarity meets a discreet decorative sensibility. The fine, shimmering grain of the maple enhances the purity of the lines and underscores the sculptural silhouette of each piece. The seats have been newly upholstered in a soft, high-quality bouclé fabric with a rich, tactile “teddy” texture. The creamy tone enhances the natural brightness of the maple while introducing a contemporary note that remains fully respectful of the original spirit. The generous padding gives the benches a welcoming, sculptural volume, elegantly contrasting with the linear precision of the frames. Versatile and architecturally present, the pair works beautifully at the end of a bed, in an entrance hall, or placed centrally within a room as subtle dividers. Their open structure allows them to function both as seating and as refined spatial accents. The maple frames have been carefully restored and refinished, preserving their natural luminosity and highlighting the depth and movement of the grain.
