Concrete Garden Bench with Carved Details

This appears to be a garden bench, likely constructed from concrete or a similar cast stone material, given its monochromatic light grey/off-white color and the texture that mimics aged stone or wood grain. The bench features a rectangular, flat seating surface that rests upon a base with elaborate, carved-like decorations. The base is characterized by scrolling volutes or wave-like patterns, interspersed with areas that resemble carved wood grain, suggesting a fusion of classical and rustic aesthetics. The ends of the bench are particularly distinctive, with armrest-like extensions that curl upwards into substantial scrolls, reminiscent of ancient Greek or Roman 'klismos' chair designs or possibly a fainting couch. The overall form suggests an intention to create a piece with significant visual weight and presence, suitable for outdoor settings. There are no visible maker's marks or signatures, and its style implies a production from the mid-20th century onwards, designed to evoke an older, perhaps classical or neoclassical, garden furnishing style. The texture appears somewhat coarse, indicating a mold-cast process. The condition seems good, with no obvious cracks or structural damage, though the surface shows some minor discoloration or patination consistent with outdoor exposure.
