garden furniture
seeing as so much garden furniture is tat - "classic" looking or soulessly contemporary - I'm wondering what you design aficionados have in your garden!
I found an LC4 garden lounger... too bad it costs a few grand.

Yes, yes -- we
all have our little idiot-syncrasies (as I call them). For instance, lit up (and niceguy) are apt to give us snarky posts from time to time. What are ya gonna do ?
Just smile at the camera, and keep rolling . . . !
Have a nice Sunday.

Those chairs
are something else fastfwd!
On my teeny tiny patio I have some vintage Solair chairs I got from an endearingly grouchy old-school Scotsman, who insisted I take them for free. He just wanted them gone...I'm guessing they were too much fun for him.
The Solair chair was designed in 1972 by Montreal industrial designers, Fabio Fabiano and Michelange Panzini and have been enjoying a resurgence here in Canada over the last few years. I'm not sure if they're popular in the U.S or not. They're extremely comfortable to sit in and I enjoy having my morning cup here...while I enjoy my neighbor's garden...

Mark, don't stop.
Your particular style of input is good for the forum, I'd miss the silliness.

I was as confused as you are ...
I was as confused as you are at the start lit up, it appeared at first glance to be an act of exhibitionism, however over time I have come to realise that it must be some sort of inside joke that those of us on the peripheral dont quite get, that said Mark doesnt appear to take himself seriously, although sometimes the images can de-rail the thread.

LOVE the snappies!
And I love your Solair chairs, Solange!
I have vintage Butterflies which I hope to get back soon from my daughter when I get a place with a balcony.

Thank you *spanky*
they're very cheery to see first thing in the morning...
I have always been a fan of those butterfly chairs. I had an opportunity to buy one with beautiful thick patinaed brown leather a few years ago for less than $100, but both cheapness and my want vs. need internal battle prevailed and I foolishly passed on it...ah well!

Don't mess with
the snappies! Or snarky, alcohol-related comments. Brightens my day. Lord knows, living in Europe, my eyes get tired of only seeing clothing in some combination of black and taupe.
Lit Up, if it helps, just think of the photos as Mark's public service primer on how one is expected to dress (and drink) whilst hobnobbing with the Palm Beach elite.

Back to the topic, does anybody have any examples of classic garden furniture, not necessarily conservatory but outdoors all year round time stuff.

snarky?
SDR,
I am not sure about "snarky". I recently said to a friend "that I was not very understanding". He replied "he thought I was understanding, I just was not very tolerant". This seemed fair.
SDR, please try not to include me and Lit Up in the same sentence.
Mark, makes me laugh with the never ending supply of Gucci's. We do not play on the same team, but we appear to have similar taste (Gucci, Gold & Wood, and all other fine things). Please keep posing.

I was contemplating buying a pair of Ernest Race Antelope chairs for the balcony but I found these instead.
Made by BKS Denmark, they serve their purpose very well.
