Pierre Jeanneret, Caned Bench from the Public Library in Chandigarh, India. Version with crossbar between the legs in the upper part. Solid teak, woven cane. See photos before restoration when I bought it in Chandigarh (we are one of the few to propose these photos). More photos on request.
Original lettering on the side: CET/LIB/B-117. This Bench is completely original except the caning (all these seats have been re-caned five or six times during their 60 years life). Very nice patina.
