Outdoor Chairs
Choose a Chair for the Way You Use the Space
Outdoor chairs need to suit the height, scale and purpose of the area around them. Jardan offers seating for dining, lounging and bar-height settings across balconies, decks, courtyards and terraces.
- Outdoor dining chairs pair with tables for meals and longer gatherings. Leave enough room behind each chair for comfortable movement.
- Outdoor lounge chairs and armchairs create lower, more relaxed seating. They can sit beside outdoor sofas to add another seat without lengthening the main sofa.
- Outdoor bar stools work with counter and bar-height tables for casual dining and drinks.
- Outdoor benches can seat several people along one side of a table while keeping the setting open.
These pieces can form part of larger outdoor dining sets or connect with other outdoor furniture from the same collection.
Frames, Fabrics and Finishes
Materials and finishes are considered around both performance and the character of each design. Nilo and Luma use powder coated aluminium for a lightweight frame with resistance to corrosion and UV exposure, while Spotted Gum brings natural grain and warmth to pieces such as Cosmo and Cecil.
Outdoor fabrics and reticulated foams add comfort while helping upholstered seating manage moisture. Across the collection, powder coat colours, timber finishes and upholstery options vary by design, making it easier to create a setting that feels cohesive without being overly matched.
Bring the Materials Together
Start with the chair shape and seat height, then check how it relates to the table or setting. Compare the available frame colour, timber finish and upholstery for that design. Jardan’s material library shows current options. Showroom teams can also help you compare finishes in person, and fabric swatches make it easier to assess colour and texture beside existing pieces.
FAQs about Outdoor Chairs
Are black outdoor chairs prone to fading in the sun?
Our black outdoor chairs are crafted with UV-resistant materials, designed to retain their depth of colour even under the harshest sunlight. While exposure to the elements is inevitable, taking simple steps like using covers or placing chairs in shaded spots will help preserve their rich tone, ensuring their beauty endures season after season.
Are outdoor dining chairs comfortable without cushions?
Outdoor dining chairs are crafted with both style and comfort in mind, offering a seamless balance of form and function. For those long summer evenings, when family celebrations and gatherings with friends stretch into the night, adding cushions can enhance both support and comfort.
What’s the best material for poolside chairs?
When choosing poolside chairs, opt for materials like aluminium or marine-grade fabrics, designed to endure sun exposure and water splashes. These materials not only withstand the elements but also retain their beauty, making them ideal for poolside lounging.
What should I consider when buying outdoor chairs?
When buying outdoor chairs, consider a balance of durability, comfort, and weather resistance. The style should complement your space, while functionality – such as stackability or foldability for easy storage – ensures your chairs remain practical throughout the seasons.
