Liquid Metal Bench | Oxidart Finish

Oxidart — oxidised metal, finished by hand.

Oxidart begins with a smooth microcement base over a timber core. Liquid iron, copper and bronze are then applied by hand and oxidised, drawing rich natural patinas out of the metal itself. The colour isn't pigment sitting on the surface — it is the metal reacting — so the depth and movement are real, and no two benches are ever alike.

Each seat is sanded, polished and sealed with a protective polyurethane lacquer, giving a hard-wearing surface with a lasting metallic sheen. Pair it with the matching Oxidart dining table, or use it on its own in a hallway or boot room.
