As eco-conscious consumers, we know that this approach assures you that we have a fair and even-handed approach to our overseas business relationships – something which may not be a priority for larger manufacturers. We always exclusively use A- grade plantation teak, otherwise known as heartwood. Our teak garden furniture is high specification, arrives at your home fully assembled and compares favourably to the products of leading brands, in fact it probably often outperforms their products. We are definitely not Johnny-come-latelys to the business, in fact, we have been retailing wicker garden furniture and teak chairs from our Hampshire base for fourteen years now.

Our Bridgman four seasons wicker garden furniture can actually be used indoors as well as outdoors, so offers you flexibility as well as quality. We are proud of our deep-held principles in ethical trading and our hard won reputation for supplying quality garden furniture at competitive prices. Chic Teaks high-quality products, amazing service and competitive pricing all combine to make us brand name busters.

When we do get lovely weather in the United Kingdom, we definitely make the most of it as we appreciate the sunshine more than our neighbours in sunnier climes. However, we are often caught short when it comes to providing food, entertainment and comfort in our gardens. By the time we have dragged tatty deckchairs, ancient plastic tables and rusty barbecue sets from our lofts and garages, the opportunity has often passed and the rain sets in again.

However, by investing in some of our gorgeous teak garden furniture, you can rest assured that all you ever need to do when the sun breaks through the clouds is ensure that your fridge is stocked with food and drinks, your barbecue is primed and your friends’ numbers are on speed dial, an impromptu gathering is only minutes away. In fact, our garden umbrellas and garden furniture parasols will ensure that your barbecue continues in rain or shine. Chic Teak products are constructed from the highest quality teak wood gathered from eco-friendly sustainable plantations and made by master craftsmen in Indonesia, and we can deliver your purchases straight to your door anywhere in the UK.

Synthetic Wicker Weaves
Synthetic wicker carries its own set of wonderful benefits. For one, it can be left unattended in your garden all the year round, and has the potential to withstand temperatures ranging from –70°C to +80°C (which the rest of your garden may not survive). Styled and secured over an aluminium frame, our synthetic wicker weave is also impervious to chlorine, salt water, and highly resistant to the sun’s UV rays, which can potentially dull colours. For those of you with messy gardens (and families) a synthetic wicker negates the need for panic at every spillage. No maintenance is required, and humble old soap and water will suffice for cleaning. For many, the main benefit is the weight. Despite being a lightweight option, nothing has been surrendered with regard to durability against time and the elements. The versatility of the wicker style is fantastic for the thriftily-minded. Historically, wicker furniture has been the furniture of choice for many a conservatory. Moving your set between outdoors and indoors is easy, practical and a great help to those with smaller gardens and budgets.

Dining Tables
By far the best place for garden dining furniture sets is on hard-standing. It’s level, safe and won’t get boggy or soft in the rain. You’ll also find yourself much relieved when you don’t have to move a heavy teak garden table, chairs and parasol each time you mow the lawn. A nifty idea for those late evening dinner parties is to hang a blanket over the back of each wooden dining chair, that way your guests can snuggle themselves up as the temperature drops a little. If your only area of hard-standing is in a suntrap, consider one of our garden parasols or gazebos to provide enough shade for everyone.

Garden Loungers and Coffee Tables
Garden loungers, particularly ones with wheels, are so easy to move that even the most fickle of sun/shade-seekers shouldn’t have a problem. Whether you want to face a certain beautiful view, a favourite bedding patch, or simply bask in the sun, a wooden garden lounger is a great choice.

Swing Seats and Benches
Once positioned, it will be difficult to move them. Many people use certain items at similar times of the day – think about what time of day you’ll most likely use them, and pick a sunny/shady spot depending on that.

Smaller Spaces
Perhaps your garden is beautiful and compact, but cannot afford you the space for a full garden furniture set. Save space with teak loungers like our own Lazy Chair with Luxury Bespoke cushion. The Lazy Chair folds away flat when not in use. Similarly, take a peek at our folding garden tables and accessories.
Make use of a large tree or underused corner by installing a tree bench seat or corner bench. We stock them in a range of sizes, but are happy to build to your own specifications too.
Invest in a small shed to store your wooden garden furniture and any unsightly clutter to make your garden appear larger.

Wide, Open Spaces
Whilst you’re lucky enough to have a great space, it can be difficult to make large expanses look lived-in. Go for one of our large, statement garden furniture sets, and add a large garden umbrella to define the area. Wicker garden furniture is a great way to create a comfy outside space. Modular furniture facilitates superb seating in any unusually shaped large areas.

Teak oil shows a rather wonderful resistance to cracking and splitting, whilst throwing in the added bonus of repelling greedy little wood-gobbling insects, mould and mildew. Teak also shows an aptitude for preventing rust when attached to metal. It has surely been teaks durability shining through as its greatest quality. Some of the first teak garden furniture was reportedly made from old ship decks. Teak garden furniture was popularised by the Victorians and their gardens. Teak’s natural durability to the weather (even the English weather) gave it the credence needed to dominate the wooden garden furniture market.
With a little bit of imagination, you can create your own teak Victorian-inspired garden style. A teak garden set and parasol perhaps? Go for stacking chairs if you’re short on space. They make a bold statement without becoming a nightmare to store. Tree-seats and benches are an especially Victorian garden feature. Furthermore, a teak butler’s tray or wine rack makes a unique addition in the summer.
