Georgette Bench Collection

Exclusively for studiotwentyseven, Kontaxakis’ georgette bench collection is an exquisite lyrical work that finds resonances between modernist geometries, jazz age sensuality, and an irreverent reimagining of classical statuary. Bold and exuberant in its play with proportion and shape, the collection is at once a celebration of contemporary cosmopolitanism and an invitation toward tranquility and repose

Magnificently crafted by master artisans in greece, the georgette is a bravura composition of sumptuous materials. ITs upholstery customizations feature fabric from the finest textile houses in europe — Nobilis, dedar, Zimmer & Rhode, and pierre frey — all noted for their legendary histories and uncompromising quality. Available fully upholstered, the georgette’s base can also be configured with the highest quality oak and walnut in several lush finishes
