The classic X-bench evolves to an elongated shape, far different from its original c.1500s beginnings as a simple stool. Updated to complement any decorating style from contemporary to traditional, the Melanie extended bench gets its custom look from a sophisticated fabric in a blend of linen and cotton in damask leaf pattern of slate blue and beige. Detailed with silver nail heads, the fully upholstered Melanie is ideal at the foot of the bed, in living or family room. Care Instructions To prevent overall soiling, frequent vacuuming or light brushing is recommended. Cushions and pillows should be turned on a weekly basis. Down-filled cushions should be brushed rather than vacuumed. Spot clean, using a mild water-free solvent or dry cleaning product. Only a professional cleaner should undertake a complete overall cleaning. The use of steam or water-based cleaners may cause excessive shrinking or staining.
