Royal Bali Reclaimed Teak Daybed SofaChanneling the relaxed grandeur of an ancient Balinese Royal Pavilion, this daybed is more than furniture?it is an escape. In the palaces of Bali, furniture was designed not just for sitting, but for lounging in open-air courtyards, surrounded by lush gardens. This piece captures that spirit of \"Island Nobility,\" crafted from solid reclaimed teak that carries the soul and strength of the jungle. The design is anchored by four massive, hand-turned \"Beehive\" legs?a hallmark of the colonial-era furniture found in the royal residences of Java and Bali. Contrasting this heavy, grounding base is the airy pierced floral carving on the backrest, reminiscent of the intricate stone reliefs found on ancient Balinese temple gates. It is a harmonious balance of strength and delicacy. Use this carved daybed as your statement sofa. Layer it with white linen bolsters and batik throws to bring the vacation vibe indoors. This Bali daybed creates an instant \"resort\" feel on a covered patio or sunroom. *Era: Contemporary *Size: 91\"(L) x 48\"(D) x 41\"(H) | Seat: 19\"H *Material: Reclaimed Teak *Color: Natural Warm Brown / Waxed *Features: Oversized Turned \"Beehive\" Legs / Pierced Carved Back & Apron / Finial Details *Origin: DE-COR original design; Balinese Colonial tradition; Indian artisans; reclaimed teak *Condition: Wear consistent with age & use; blemishes and imperfections are not defects but part of its historical character and value.

A broad, full-shouldered black pottery olla signed on the base Reynalda Quezada de Lopez of Mata Ortiz, Chihuahua, Mexico. Its polished black surface carries large, unfurling spirals filled with fine feathered hatching, like fiddlehead ferns caught mid-curl. Between them run stepped geometric bands and scattered leaf and circle motifs, all etched by hand and glowing as matte lines against the glossy ground.


The olla form and the intricate etched decoration reflect the Mata Ortiz tradition, a pottery revival rooted in the ancient Casas Grandes potters of northern Mexico. At 11\" in diameter and 8\" tall, it has the presence of a true collector\'s piece. It looks equally striking alone on a console or table, or with a single branch of dried stems rising from its short collar Vintage

Q: What is an olla?

A: An olla is a rounded pot with a wide body and a narrower neck, traditionally used across Mexico and the American Southwest for storing and carrying water, grain and food. In Mata Ortiz, the olla form is also a favorite canvas for decorative pottery, and this one is made as a display piece.


Q: Where do the spirals and stepped bands come from?

A: Mata Ortiz potters draw on the designs of the ancient Casas Grandes (Paquimé) culture of northern Mexico, which favored spirals, stepped fret patterns and geometric bands, and then add their own variations. We don\'t assign a symbolic meaning to the motifs on this piece, but they clearly belong to that heritage.
