Garden Furniture Information
Garden furniture has been around for many years, it used to mainly be used by people with large farmhouses which had extentions from the main family rooms so outdoor furniture was then required. The start of outdoor furniture was the good old rocking chair, most families had these and the were an indoor and an outdoor piece of furniture, in the 18th century the rocking chair was known as the American chair, these are still on sale but in no way as popular as our yesteryear.
In the early 1930’s garden furniture really started to take off, the most popular was hand crafted cast iron. As the country houses became more popular and were an ideal meeting place in the summer months for families more and more patio furniture was required and that brings us to today where most homes have a nice garden set in the back garden.
People really love their summer BBQ’s these days and appreciate the comfort of gardens, thats why garden design services are used regularly.
