Darsham Bistro Set - Hand Etched Finish
The Darsham Bistro set is the perfect addition to your garden, ideal to create a cosy outdoor retreat in compact garden spaces. This table and chair set is great for morning coffee moments, afternoon snacks or evening drinks.
This handcrafted furniture is a perfect blend of style and practicality with a timeless mix of classic british aesthetics with clever functionality. What sets this furniture apart is the smooth folding mechanism allowing the table and chairs to be easily moved and stored when required.
Handcrafted garden furniture
Following in the footsteps of our best selling Southwold Range, the attention to detail is as meticulous with our Darsham Folding Furniture collection. The handcrafted Bistro Set uses premium steel which is hot dip galvanised to provide superb rust protection. The chairs and table then undergo a hand-etching process to give them the distinctive aged finish which improves as the furniture ages. We are so confident in the durability of the furniture that each piece has a 10 year structural guarantee.
Darsham Bistro Table
The folding bistro table has an attractive slatted top measuring 80cm diameter and comes with an umbrella hole, making it perfectly adaptable to the time of day and weather. Perfect for two, the table has a clever folding mechanism making it easy to move and store.
The table is made using 30mm wide and 6mm thick steel for the legs and the table top is 3mm thick. Measuring 80cm and 73cm high, the table weighs a reassuring 20kg. There are foot pads for each leg of the table and each table foot has holes to fix into place if required.
Darsham Folding Chairs Design A
Every aspect of our bistro chairs has been thoughtfully engineered for relaxation. The ergonomic design incorporates precisely angled back slats and a gently flexible steel seat, ensuring hours of comfortable conversation. We've paid particular attention to the small details that make a big difference to your outdoor enjoyment.
The chair framework is made from 30mm wide x 6mm thick steel with the seat slats 3mm thick. Each chair measures 89cm high, 50cm wide with a seat height of 45cm and weighs 16kg.
Floor-protecting feet pads are supplied as standard with each chair, and each foot has fixing holes if required.

DARSHAM FOLDING GARDEN FURNITURE COLLECTION
This new handcrafted traditional furniture collection is a blend of style and practicality, manufactured to the same high quality as our popular Southwold range, but with the added function of being able to fold the furniture to make it easier to move and store.
Timeless Elegance
The range is inspired by traditional blacksmith furniture which became popular at the start of the industrial revolution over 200 years ago. Many of the shapes, forms and general look and feel quote directly from this heritage.
Enduring Comfort
Where our designs differ from tradition however, is the depth of study and care we have taken to ensure that our furniture is as much comfortable as beautiful. Much thought has gone into the ergonomics of the seat designs and careful selection of material section and thickness to ensure just the right amount of 'give' is coupled with the required structural strength. The chair designs for example use a range of thicknesses of strip steel depending on the design need. The legs use 6mm thick strip for strength and rigidity whereas the seat base and back rest use 3mm slats to give comfort and spring to the seat. Cushions can be ordered with your furniture for ultimate comfort but we are confident that even without padding our chairs will be kind to your behind.
Highly Skilled Production
All of our furniture is hand made by skilled technicians. Due to the handmade nature of the products all pieces are unique, these slight differences add up to sets of furniture with real soul and charm in a world of mass produced conformity. Before final finishing all of the products are dipped in a bath of molten zinc which envelops the steel in a blanket of sacrificial rust protection. Each furniture piece is therefore extremely tough and durable, and with a substantial weight, so will withstand the most extreme British weather.
Durable Finishes
The Darsham furniture collection is structurally guaranteed for 10 years, but our testing suggests that the furniture can genuinely be considered as heirloom pieces that will last for years if looked after. Before the final finish, all furniture is hot dip galvanised in molten zinc.
Each piece of furniture is chemically etched by hand after the zinc coating is applied leaving an antique finish. The joy of these hand processes means that every piece has its own character that evolves with age and improves as the product weathers. Colours can vary from from light to dark grey. The finish is always varied, it is not a paint and is not intended to be completely uniform, which adds to the charm of these unique pieces.
It is quite normal for tables and chairs to arrive looking mottled grey with some white patches, furniture will also look considerably darker if wet. The finish tends to move towards a slightly more whitish grey over the course of the seasons. Variable environmental conditions means that there is no absolute time for weathering to occur, but typically a product will move towards slightly whiter shades over a couple of months.
Care Guide
To clean your furniture, use no more than mild detergent, water and a nylon scrubbing brush. The furniture can be left outside year round in all weathers.
If you live very close to the sea please be aware that a salt laden atmosphere can greatly accelerate corrosion, so we recommend cleaning more frequently. Please note that the white zinc oxides that develops are not harmful to the skin. Zinc oxide is used in wide range of cosmetics and personal care products.
