Price History
Description
* Smooth mid-century inspired curves * Solid beechwood construction * Warm midtone wood finish * Olive velvet upholstery With a nod to mid-century design, this dining bench features flowing curves that soften the look of your dining space. The solid beechwood frame, finished in a warm midtone, brings a natural warmth while offering reliable support. An olive velvet seat and backrest are set within the frame, creating a suspended, floating appearance. The velvet finish adds depth and a smooth feel, giving the bench a more refined edge. Well-padded for comfort, it’s suited to both everyday use and relaxed dining. The open frame keeps the silhouette light and unobtrusive.
Our Stylist Says
I really like this Hugh dining bench for its clean, contemporary look and versatile appeal. The velvet upholstery adds a touch of softness and a luxe feel, making it suitable for both modern and more traditional interiors. It's perfect for creating extra seating in a dining room or even acting as a stylish accent piece at the foot of the bed or in a hallway. For styling tips, consider pairing it with wood or metal-legged dining chairs to add interest, or keep the space minimal with a clutter-free table to really let the bench stand out. Its neutral colour means it can easily blend with different colour schemes, while the soft upholstery invites comfort and sophistication.

About Dunelm
A Legacy of Home Comfort Dunelm's Journey
Dunelm isn't just another store; it's a British legacy. Kicked off in 1979 by the dynamic duo, Bill and Jeany Adderley, what began as a simple market stall in Leicester transformed into one of the UK's most prominent home furnishings retailers.
Fast forward a bit, and their first brick-and-mortar store sprang to life in Leicester in 1984. Dunelm didn't stop there, making waves throughout the decades, innovating and expanding, launching an online shopping experience, and securing its place on the London Stock Exchange.
More than Just Products...A Personal Touch
With a whopping 177 stores across the UK, Dunelm isn't just about selling items; it's about crafting experiences. Many of their stores come with cosy Pausa cafes, offering a space to relax and refuel.
And if you've ever felt like joining a community, they've got dedicated Facebook groups for each store locality. It's not just about buying a product; it's about being part of the Dunelm family. Their online platform seamlessly complements their in-store experience, promising product availability and varied delivery options.
