The Lorette bench is the brainchild of Frédéric Sofia, a designer who’s enjoyed a long and illustrious partnership with Fermob – including the iconic Luxembourg range. This item of furniture, which is packed with personality, is the latest addition to the already-generous collection of the same name. No matter where you place your Lorette bench, it’s sure to impress: on the patio or terrace, or even at the bottom of the garden at your country house – the ideal place for shared secrets and hushed, whispered conversations. As you admire the play on light and shade created by the floral pattern, you won’t even notice the time passing. This bench is inspired by the famous Confident model – the double-seated, face-to-face design that lets two people converse without having to turn around. Clever, right? Its styling is perfectly in keeping with the neo-romantic spirit of the Lorette collection, while its delicate, perforated pattern is inspired by mashrabiyas. It features the same stylised four-petalled flower found across the entire collection – and it packs every inch of Fermob’s metalwork know-how. The Lorette bench is made using traditional, time-served methods at the brand’s factory in Thoissey, eastern France. It stands out for its asymmetrical design: one half is an armchair, the other is a chair. Original in every sense of the word! It may be elegant in design and packed with technical qualities, but that doesn’t mean it compromises on sturdiness: this bench can withstand all weathers, while the sun’s rays are no match for its anti-UV polyester powder coating. Treat yourself to an elegant, refined, retro-chic bench, available in every shade of the Fermob colour chart. And while you’re at it, why not complement your stylish bench with other pieces from the expansive Lorette collection? The Lorette bench is all about indulgence: a truly exceptional piece of furniture that’s made to order – just for you!
