FAQs

A radassier is a traditional long wooden settee or bench originating from provincial France, typically featuring a high back and a woven rush seat designed for communal seating in farmhouses.

These pieces are typically constructed using solid regional hardwoods such as oak, ash, or fruitwood for the structural frame, combined with hand-woven natural marsh rush or straw for the seat.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-turned wooden components, traditional joinery such as mortise and tenon, and consistent wear patterns and oxidisation on the timber and hand-twisted natural rush fibres.

This type of seating anchors a hallway, living room, or dining space when paired with neutral textiles, textured cushions, or placed against a plain plastered wall to highlight its structural craftsmanship.

Rush seats should be kept away from excessive moisture and direct sunlight to prevent the natural fibres from becoming brittle, and cleaned gently using a soft brush attachment on a vacuum.
