Gym Bench Table

It has given up exercise entirely. Nobody is complaining.

This gym bench table pairs leather with bleached elm wood. Padded leather benches were once standard equipment in school and club gymnasiums, built to take years of hard use, and their plain, sturdy lines have made them a favorite for reuse as low tables. The top here is a single broad cushion of tan leather with rounded corners and a mottled, grainy surface. Four tapered square legs carry a simple apron, with rows of small brass-colored nailheads tracing the leg tops and feet. It measures 70 inches long, 40 deep and 19 high.

The only weights on it now will be art books.
