Fermob cafe furniture was created in France at the end of the 19th century for cafe owners who needed something lightweight that they could pack away easily at the end of the day. It now comes in 24 different colours to suit every possible taste.

I don’t like to have everything too matchy matchy, so my choice would be a plain table, possibly in Anthracite,  Liquorice or Plum and then a series of different shades of grey chairs with one bright pink one.

The chairs are made in France from high quality steel and covered with anti-rust treatment. The colours won’t fade in the sun. There’s a range of tables to choose from too.

  1. Lovely photos – and quite agree with you about the quality of Fermob’s Bistro furniture. Searching on Google Shopping is a good way to find it and compare prices – just look out for all the ‘style of’, ‘inspired by’ cheap imitations.

    BTW with Fermob cafe range you can get Very High rust protection (with 3 year guarantee) as well as the normal 1 year guarantee.
