Boden Bench - Steel Grey with Black

The Boden bench brings an industrial look to your home, pairing steel grey chenille fabric with a matt black metal frame. Measuring 1210mm wide, 415mm deep and 465mm high, it gives you seating for two or three people depending on the space, with a padded seat and button detail across the top. At 10kg it stays sturdy underfoot yet remains easy enough to move when you rearrange a room or need to clean around it.

We designed this bench to suit a variety of spots around the home. Set it at the foot of a bed for a place to sit and put on shoes, slot it under a hallway console for extra seating that stays out of the way, or use it along a dining table as a relaxed alternative to chairs. The steel grey tone works with warm and cool colour schemes alike, and the black frame ties in with darker furniture and metal fittings you may already have. Its compact depth means it fits neatly against a wall too.

The frame is built from metal in a matt black finish, giving the bench its structure and an open, leggy base. The padded seat is wrapped in chenille fabric, a soft woven material with a gentle texture and a slight sheen. Button detailing across the seat adds a tailored touch and keeps the padding in place. Full assembly is required and the bench arrives in one box. To keep it looking its best, wipe the fabric with a damp cloth or lift away dust and crumbs with a soft brush.

What is the seat made from?

The seat is padded and covered in chenille fabric in a steel grey shade. Chenille is a soft woven material with a subtle texture and a light sheen, and it sits on a matt black metal frame. Button detailing across the top adds a neat, tailored finish.

How do I clean the Boden bench?

For everyday care, wipe the fabric seat with a damp cloth or lift away dust and crumbs using a soft brush. Avoid soaking the chenille or using harsh cleaners. Keeping on top of dust helps the steel grey fabric hold its look over time.

How many people can sit on it?

At 1210mm wide the bench comfortably seats two people, or three at a squeeze. Its depth of 415mm suits use at the end of a bed, along a dining table or in a hallway, giving you flexible seating that fits into most rooms.

Does the bench need assembling?

Yes, full assembly is required and the bench arrives flat in one box. The main task is fixing the matt black metal frame to the padded seat. It is a manageable job with everyday tools, and the 10kg weight keeps the finished piece steady in use.

Will it suit my existing furniture?

The steel grey chenille works with both warm and cool colour schemes, while the matt black frame ties in with darker wood, metal fittings and industrial pieces. This makes it a straightforward match for bedrooms, hallways and dining areas alike.
