Inspired by the political beheading of Don Rodrigo Calderon—a 17th century family ancestor—whose prestigious turn as courtier and minister to Phillip III of Spain ended with accusations of witchcraft and murder. In death, his body was swarmed by a public desperate to make relics of his effects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTHE CORTIJO BENCH is designed for two or more parties. The surface of the bench accommodates the body, the chin holder welcomes the participant’s head, keeping it in place for the active partner’s approval. Four ports on either corner are in place to receive the desired finger of the leisurely partner(s).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe arching bench legs echo the romantic lines of classical Spanish furniture. A consecutive border of loops, inspired by Don Calderon’s ruff, are a subversive nod to the traditional ornamental elements of renaissance and baroque furniture—these are placed as additional digital receptacles for either the active or passive participants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMATERIAL:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cast bronze, satin finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDIMENSIONS:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHEIGHT:\u003c\/b\u003e 22.4″ \/ 57 cm · \u003cb\u003eWIDTH:\u003c\/b\u003e 15.3″ \/ 39 cm · \u003cb\u003eDEPTH:\u003c\/b\u003e 57″ \/ 145 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWEIGHT:\u003c\/strong\u003e 46 kg \/ 101.4 lb\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0605\/8668\/8744\/files\/THE_CORTIJO_BENCH_1.pdf?v=1794236919\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"DOWNLOAD TEARSHEET\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eDOWNLOAD TEARSHEET \u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VAGUJHELYI","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68152010539240,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0605\/8668\/8744\/files\/WEBSITE_CORTIJO_BENCH_BRONZE.jpg?v=1794225045","url":"https:\/\/vagujhelyi.us\/products\/the-cortijo-bench","provider":"VAGUJHELYI","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
