Morpho is a study in morphology of a tree trunk as it is processed by craftsman into a refined functional sculpture. The bench’s aesthetic is defined by two robust feet, which look like they they’ve been sculpted by splitting a log. The carving texture on the inner flat side of the feet is reminiscent of the texture of wood fibers one observes in a split wooden log.
The sitting surface of the bench is made of split wooden plank with a curious V-shape cut at each end. The bench is 230cm long and will add unpretentious and warm elegance to a multitude of interior settings. The whole development process for this product was carried out remotely, relying on video conferences and excellent, which worked very well thanks to excellent engineering and product development skills on both sides.

All wood used in Zanat’s products comes from sustainably managed forests or private fruit orchards (walnut and cherry). FSC certificates for forest-originating wood are available upon request. Moreover, in 2021 Zanat undertook a commitment to plant three new trees for every tree we used to produce our products.
Color variations and small healthy knots in wood are indications of material authenticity and cannot be considered a defect. Wood is a hygroscopic material which absorbs and sheds moisture to adopt to the humidity of the environment in which it is placed and it expands or shrinks as a consequence. To minimize checking and cracking, all Zanat products should be kept indoors (outdoors use is OK if protected from precipitation and direct sunlight) and air humidity should not be less than 40% or more than 70%. Humidity outside this range is not optimal for human health and can result in product damage.
All Zanat products can be cleaned with soft dry or damp cotton or other soft cloth. For repairs and reoiling of oil-finished products, please consult our Care & Maintenance manual. Oil-finished dining tables come with a free care & maintenance kit. The kits can also be purchased from Zanat.
Zanat provides a five-year limited warranty against manufacturing defects in standard products (materials and workmanship). Wear, tear and product damages is not covered under this warranty. The claims will not cover minor checks in wood, which result from relative humidity changes. Cracks in wood that result as a consequence of air humidity outside the above-indicated safe range, discolorations resulting from direct exposure of products to sunlight or otherwise improper use will not be covered under the warranty. Claims from end users must be submitted to the dealer from whom the product was purchased in order to be considered.
NOTE: This is not our formal warranty document. Please request our valid warranty document for further details on Zanat’s warranty policy and claim handling.
