Know before you buy
Yes, the bench is designed for both indoor and outdoor use. However, because it is crafted from raw iron or brushed aluminum, you should expect the material to evolve and develop a unique patina when exposed to the elements.
Both brushed aluminum and raw iron are durable, but they will age differently. The raw iron may develop surface oxidation over time, while the brushed aluminum will maintain a more consistent, metallic finish. Minor surface scratches are a natural part of the material's evolution for both options.
The bench is robustly constructed from metal, providing significant weight and stability. Because each piece is hand-welded, there may be slight variances in weight, but it is generally substantial enough to serve as a permanent fixture in an outdoor lounge area.
The bench is made of solid metal, so we recommend using felt pads or a rug underneath if you are placing it on delicate indoor surfaces like hardwood or tile to prevent scratching.
For routine cleaning, simply wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can interfere with the natural aging process of the raw iron or aluminum finish.
Yes, the hand-welded construction is a defining feature of the Funki Bench. You will see the authentic marks of the artisan's work, which contributes to the piece's unique character and sculptural, Brutalist aesthetic.
