More and More People are buying into the Notion that QUALITY Garden Furniture
If one buys garden furniture it is far more cost effective to pay out for quality, even though that may mean paying out a bit more at the outset; quality costs, and the old adage of “you get what you pay for” is perhaps the truest saying there is. Garden and outdoor furniture is not a new phenomenon; rather the concept of garden and outdoor furniture is many centuries old, archeological evidence of outdoor and garden furniture effects has been found in one of the gardens of Pompeii, the city which was swallowed and completely buried during a long catastrophic eruption of the volcano Mount Vesuvius spanning two days in the year AD 79.
Typically, garden and outdoor furniture is sold in sets of tables and chairs; sets which invariably contain four or six chairs and a parasol to shade diners from the sun, although in the height of a good old British summer, perhaps a rain umbrella would be better suited. Joking aside, Britain is far enough south to see glorious summer days, and while they are not necessarily as warm or as bright as the south of France British summers do have their moments – several of them.
Eating alfresco on a warm summer Sunday afternoon is a quintessentially English pastime, something which in many of us evoke images of Downton Abbey or Upstairs, Downstairs where the landed and upper classes would sit down for a formal picnic either in sprawling formal gardens or by the river, being served little sandwiches and cold meat offerings by perfectly dressed maids and servants.
Unfortunately, nowadays we have to serve ourselves as well as prepare all the fare for enjoying a summer’s day in the garden; indeed, if one is fortunate enough to have a swimming pool in the back garden, a nice formal set of tables and chairs either placed next to the pool area or on the patio close by rounds off a great day away from the world, away from work and away from the stresses of modern living. However, if one doesn’t have a swimming pool handy, just get the kid’s paddling pool out and make do with that by the side of your garden furniture set.
If your garden furniture is to be made from wood, always go for a table and chairs set made from teak; hard wearing, not prone to infestation by horrid little beetles and other bugs and naturally oily it will, if taken care of, probably outlive the person buying it. Teak tables and chairs at unbelievable prices, made to exacting standards and extremely hardwearing are available from the website of garden furniture Direct, the address of which is http://www.garden-furniture-direct.com.
