Jude is running a monthly bench challenge and for March the topic is wooden benches. I found this one a few years ago at a cultural centre in Kuala Lumpur and it’s always stayed in my mind. It wasn’t particularly comfortable but it was very tactile!
Perhaps you have a wooden bench to share? If you’d like to join in visit Jude at

Most unusual. Since it’s so low to the ground, is it for a child? ❤ ❤ ❤
That is some little bench!
Oh such gorgeous carvings and wonderfully polished! That would look beautiful in a conservatory.
It looks far better to stroke than to sit.
How neat. I’d like to at least sit on it once to see what it feels like.
The bench looks wonderful
So beautiful, Gilly. I think it’s definitely more for ornament than relaxation. 🙂
LOVE that bench!
Very interesting bench and idea for a challenge!
That bench is a work of art Gilly, I love its shape.
You have a genius for the unusual, Gilly. Tactile, and whatever you call it when you can stroke something with your eyes! A lovely contribution to the world of benches.
You wouldn’t sit on it, Gilly, but it certainly looks good. 🙂
I’m still chuckling at the notion of wind turbines decorated for Christmas 🙂
Great use of weathered wood! I would love to own one 🙂
Our local museum used to have several art sculpture/benches, and it never occurred to me to photograph them! Dumb!
Great shot.
