galvanised steel
Zinc first, then a powder coat over it — two barriers between the steel and the weather.
Materials & finishes
What the range is made of.
Teak that silvers, aluminium light enough to re-set a terrace daily, rattan that belongs indoors — each family behaves differently once the furniture leaves the showroom. Choose a material to see what is built from it.
By material.
aluminium
Powder-coated and light to move, for a terrace that gets re-set daily.
galvanised wire
all-weather wicker
Hand-woven fibre, resistant to fading, cracking or tearing — named for the weather it stays out in.
stainless & aluminium
Brushed stainless, never chromed — the frames behind a dining or bar setting, and the tensioned sling seats that go with them.
steel
other woods
polyethylene
Rotomoulded in one piece rather than built as a frame with a skin over it.
metal
fabric
Soft goods, stated plainly.
Seat and back cushions, squabs and sunbed pads, cut and covered in outdoor cloth — ours or yours. Fabric, grade and colourway are settled piece by piece when the schedule is drawn, and a physical sample is sent before anything is cut.
Care
Where each maker’s own guidance lives.
Kingsley Bate
Teak weathering and cleaning, indoor care and stain protection, in Kingsley Bate’s own words.
Calma
Aluminium, stainless steel, rotomoulded polyethylene and larix pine tops — a cleaning routine for each.
