Inspired by the simplicity of Japanese furniture, the Tanso range bridges the gap between outdoors and indoors by elevating the craftsmanship, quality and detail of outdoor furniture. Constructed from Grade A Teak, the clever design of the subtle angles to the flat seat boards allow rainwater to run off without compromising on comfort, meaning any damage from the elements is minimised. Whilst the Tanso range is designed for outdoor use, it’s elegant and detailed aesthetic means it looks at ease inside too. Matching round and rectangular dining tables are also available within the collection.
