The Greensboro Chair pays homage to those Greensboro sit ins that ended on July 25, 1960. It represents the men and women who by choosing to sit down, stood up for so much. Made from bold walnut, this piece uses a series of interlocking joinery techniques to create a robust visual, mirroring the accord of those involved in the event. Whether utilized as an everyday chair or a decorative piece, The Greensboro Chair depicts solidity through detailed structure, illustrating that by sitting down, 4 black freshmen were able to lift a nation.

A percentage of profits will be donated to local Greensboro charities.

Each chair is hand crafted and custom made to order. Production lead times are between 14-18 weeks.

Shipping included within the United States.

Bennu is a concept that goes beyond mere products – we're all about building vibrant communities through our inspired creations. Bennu is more than a brand; it's a movement that embraces the power of design to connect, inspire, educate and transform.
We believe that the spaces we inhabit should reflect our individual stories, dreams, and aspirations. That's why we work closely with our clients to customize designs that resonate with their visions, turning their spaces into personal sanctuaries.

At Bennu, we believe that every product we craft holds the potential to ignite a sense of belonging and foster meaningful connections.
Our pieces are designed to be conversation starters, community gatherers, and focal points that spark connections. Each Bennu creation is a testament to our commitment to building bridges among people. Through our creations, we're building a network of individuals who appreciate the artistry of design and the power of human connections. Our designs are carefully curated to reflect the diversity and individuality of our community.

Just as the Ancient Egyptian Bennu bird symbolizes renewal, Bennu embodies the idea of rejuvenation and growth within our communities. We're dedicated to infusing each piece with intention, allowing it to become a vessel for shared experiences and shared values. Our products are more than functional; they're catalysts for authentic interactions, whether it's gathering around a beautifully designed table or finding inspiration in a thoughtfully crafted art piece.

But Bennu is not just about products; it's a platform for meaningful engagement. Through our community events, workshops, and collaborative projects, we provide spaces where individuals can come together, exchange ideas, and contribute to a tapestry of creativity and connection.

Join us in the journey of building communities through inspired products. Let Bennu be the catalyst that transforms your spaces into vibrant hubs of interaction and unity. Together, let's create a world where design isn't just a statement but a means to bring people closer, spark conversations, and form lasting relationships.
