With spring around the corner, why not revamp your outdoor area, ready for all of those wonderful summer festivities. Whether it is a small courtyard, alfresco area or large garden space, one of these hand crafted furniture pieces is a must to create that classic European summer look! Here are some beautiful classic design ideas….
LOOM
Trilogy Loom is made by twisting and winding paper around fine steel wire, the Kraft paper is then placed on a loom and woven into a loom fabric. This traditional method has been used for over 100 years.
The above picture is of the trilogy Charlotte loom chairs, any of these colours look fantastic with the luxury faux stone tables or just as an occasional chair to have in a small nook or courtyard with a small forged iron table.
Above is the moulding of the loom fabric onto the chair frame.

FORGED IRON
Trilogy forged iron follows a traditional European style, which dates back to the roman times. Each forged steel product is handmade with attention to detail. This product is galvanized which is suited for any outdoor setting.

TEAK
The classic Lutyens teak bench was designed over 100 Years ago, this design has been used in grand and formal garden settings worldwide. This product is made of teak which is a well suited outdoor timber and ages to a beautiful soft silver patina or if oiled regularly a classic dark hue.
