Description
Anton Design Your Own is an upholstered bench you configure yourself: a fully welded steel frame in black, beige or white, with a cushion in vegan leather, bouclé or velvet, handmade in Sweden as the companion piece to the Anton coffee table series.
Match it to your Anton set or let it stand alone: the square steel profile is the same language as the tables, so whichever frame and fabric you choose, the pieces speak to each other. Every fabric in the configurator is certified for demanding use. Valencia vegan leather is rated to 300,000 Martindale with an easy-clean finish; Matteo velvet is OEKO-TEX certified; Dolly bouclé is claw-safe tested to BS 8479.
Like every by Crea original, Anton is designed by Alexandra Pettersson and welded from raw Swedish steel in our own factory in Malmö, and it arrives fully assembled. It carries 200 kg, the warranty runs ten years, and repair beats replacement here, with spare parts available long after purchase. Every configured bench is made to order; full dimensions are in the dropdown below.
“I drew Anton together with the tables: the same square steel line, carried on into a place to sit.”

Care & Maintenance
Fabric
Wipe down with a microfiber cloth, lukewarm water and neutral washing detergent. Do not use ph acidic or basic solutions like acetone or bleach.
Frame
Wipe with a microfiber cloth, lukewarm water and a normal cleaning agent. Refrain from using too acidic solutions as this will fade out the outer protection of the powder-coat.
Delivery, Returns & Assembly
Shipping
Shipping is calculated at checkout from your delivery address and the size of your order, so you see the exact cost before you pay. A tracking link reaches you by email the moment your order leaves our factory in Malmö, Sweden.
Delivery time
Orders across Europe are delivered by UPS, normally 3 to 5 working days after dispatch. Made to order pieces are produced first, and that production time is shown on this page.
Assembly
Most of our furniture arrives fully assembled. Dining tables and some outdoor pieces arrive with the top and legs packed separately, and fitting them takes 5 to 10 minutes and one screwdriver.
Returns
You have 14 days from delivery to request a return, provided the piece is unused and in its original condition. Email info@by-crea.com or open the chat and we will arrange it. Return shipping is paid by you at the carrier's actual rate, typically 15 to 20% of the order value, or roughly 30 to 90 EUR per package depending on size and destination. We confirm the exact amount in your own currency before anything is collected.
Custom orders
Anything configured through Design Your Own, with custom dimensions, finishes or materials, is produced specifically for your order and is not eligible for return. Order free samples first, or ask us in the chat, and we will help you get it right the first time.
FAQ
It is designed to. The bench shares the square steel profile and proportions of the Anton coffee table series, so bench and tables feel like one family in the room. Match the frames exactly, or let the cushion pick up a tone from the table tops.
It is a living-room piece first: beside the Anton sets, against a wall or under a window. The compact single size also earns its place at the foot of a bed or in a hallway.
Yes. We do not offer a re-covering service, but the cushion can be bought separately and swapped yourself. A worn or marked cushion never means a new bench, and it also lets you change the fabric later if you update the room.
Wipe vegan leather with lukewarm water, mild soap and a soft cloth. On bouclé, blot spills straight away and dab gently rather than scrubbing. The powder-coated steel frame needs only a damp cloth.
Anton comes in one compact size, chosen to sit beside the Anton tables without crowding them. All dimensions are in the dropdown below, and the seat is rated for a maximum load of 200 kg (440 lbs).
Yes. Order free material samples of every fabric and colour and judge the texture and tone in your own light before you decide.
Every Anton bench has a 10-year warranty. It is welded from raw Swedish steel, powder-coated and upholstered in our own factory in Malmö, Sweden, and inspected by hand before it ships.
