Antelope Bench

Whimsical and full of frivolous optimism.

Just some of the words that have been used to describe the iconic Antelope that was designed by Ernest Race back in 1951. The Antelope Bench has a playful sculptural form and ball feet that suggest the period’s molecular and atomic imagery characteristic. The Antelope has won several design awards, and today it is still an obvious choice for cafes, restaurants and offices both indoors and outdoors.
