Included in your set
Our Stanway garden set includes the Stanway bluestone dining table and eight Stanway carver chairs with seat cushions. Scatter cushions can be purchased separately here for an extra touch of colour.
Also included are the chair cushions, but if you’d like to add scatters, those are available separately here.
The table
Stanway’s a rustic, farmhouse-style table design, and in this version, combines timber with a bluestone tabletop. It’s slightly more contemporary than the solid teak Stanway, but because it’s made from natural materials, it’s still every bit as timeless.
Teak
Teak’s a hardwood that’s full of natural oils, so it’s practical for outdoors. Stanway comes pre-treated with our IsoGuard® oil to soften its honey-brown colour and protect it from the elements. The wood will weather though, taking on a silvery tint over time.
Bluestone
By designing an aluminium honeycomb core and wrapping the natural stone around it, the tabletop has all the robust character of bluestone, without the impractical weight. The colour has a mottled hint of blue to its charcoal grey tone. And we’ve chosen a honed finish over a polished one, which is more subtle and neutral. It comes sealed too, to give it a layer of protection.
The chairs
Not so deep that you lean too far back, these chairs still have a wraparound, cosy feel. They’re also a little lower than some of our other dining chairs, which adds to the laidback feel of this set. And to guard against dirt, damp and scuffs, the very bottom of each leg is capped in plastic (this makes them easier to move around too).
All-weather wicker
The chairs are made with a woven resin fibre we call ‘all-weather wicker’. It’s got very much the same look as natural rattan, but it’s happy being left outside (as well as having a longer lifespan), making your life much easier.
The seat cushions
All our garden furniture cushions are made from natural-coloured, weather-resistant fabric, so you needn’t bring them inside if there’s a quick summer shower. They’re not completely weatherproof, though, so don’t leave them out all year long or in pouring rain. They’re filled with foam, which is soft but keeps its shape well, and the covers are removable, so they’re easy to clean.
