Demand for country furniture increases every year. The cottage became not only a garden, but also a place of rest, which everyone wants to spend with comfort.
The first garden furniture appeared in ancient Rome. There for the first time they came up with making furniture not only for chic palaces, but also for residences and villas of the nobility located outside the city. Luxurious palace furniture was made of cauliflower and bronze, but the country — from the rods of willow or vines.
Over time, both the styles and the trends of furniture production changed. The furniture was simplified, then, on the contrary, it became more elaborate and exquisite. Most of the items of summer furniture came from different cultures today. Wicker reed furniture, black wood furniture came to us from the east. Gamak is a South American invention.
Wooden furniture.
She has always been and still remains very popular in the market. Do not be afraid to use modern wooden furniture in street conditions: the wood is reliably protected by the corresponding compositions.
However, not all wooden breeds are equally resistant to street conditions. For cottage furniture, only larch, beech, acacia and tick can be used. The wood of these species is protected from negative factors by nature itself.
Mosaic and stone furniture.
Mosaic furniture can be both completely stone and on a metal frame with a mosaic of stone crumbs on polymers. Stone furniture is very expensive and belongs to the representative class.
Forged furniture.
A combination of strength and grace, external fragility and resistance — all this is a metal forged furniture. Metal benches, chairs and tables will always be welcome, neither the sun nor the rain are scared. Furniture consists of iron forged blanks connected by welding or rivets. Subsequently, the furniture is painted and ages artificially.
Furniture from the profile.
High-tech style and the fashion for minimalism touched on country residences. Folding chairs, armchairs and tables with a steel or aluminum base are found more and more often in summer cottages. Such furniture withstands the conditions of the environment no worse than its wicker or forged brothers, while standing at times cheaper.
Wicker furniture.
It is distinguished by grace and extraordinary ease. Bamboo, willow rods, rattan — only a few of the materials that are suitable for wicker furniture. When buying, pay attention to whether the rod is covered with varnish. This product not only benefits in attractiveness, but also becomes easier to care.
