Rare Pair of Walter Lamb Bronze Extra Long Benches
Rare Pair of Walter Lamb Bronze Extra Long Benches
These are a very rare early pair of Walter Lamb Bronze Benches. They are extra long, 78 in. long instead of typical 72 in. size. They add a new level of comfort for taller people lying in the supine position. These benches can be sold separately. At the end of WW2, Walter Lamb was stationed in Hawaii. There he conceived the idea of using reclaimed surplus brass tubing from the naval yards to design the framework for outdoor furniture. He used cotton cording to form the support body. A few years later, his designs became part of the Brown and Jordan line and by the early1960’s, the cotton cording was replaced by plastic cording. All of our Walter Lamb pieces are newly restored with cotton cording treated to resist mold and mildew.
