Did your ever consider an outdoor bistro set to give an authentic feeling to you kitchen, patio or balcony? If you liked our previous article about finding a bistro style for your kitchen, we though you would be also interested in expanding your “retro” experience outdoor.
How to chose a bistro set
When speaking about patio bistro sets, authenticity is the key. Parisian bistro were not furbished with expensive furnitures: the designs were elegant but functional. No need to get huge wrought iron chairs that look heavy; choose stylish and elegant designs that you will compliment with colored cushions and accessories.
The various material available for patio and outdoor bistro sets
If your want a very classic look, go for metal and wood! Whicker is also very common in parisian cafes. Wrought iron gives a more dramatic look but is also difficult to match with other accessories when the designs are saturated with curves, splines and counter splines. If you want a outdoor bistro set and you don”t want to fold it every times it rains, go for synthetic whicker: the choice of colors is large and the material is robust yet elegant.
Here is a selection of elegant and stylized bistro sets to help your make your choice:
