Overview
Enjoy relaxed refinement outdoors with this beautifully crafted British Oak garden armchair, made by Gaze Burvill’s expert craftspeople in Hampshire. Generously proportioned yet compact, it’s ideal for terraces, patios and garden nooks alike.
More flexible than a longer seat, this armchair offers a comfortable place for quiet contemplation or can be paired with another for easy conversation. The sculpted arms provide the perfect resting place for a drink or book – and they make rising from the chair effortless (though you may never want to).
Each chair is made from British Oak sourced from responsibly managed woodlands, and displays the unique grain patterning that only real wood can offer. Warm to the touch and deeply tactile, the biophilic properties of oak make this chair not just beautiful, but a joy to sit in all year round.
Built with over three decades of craftsmanship and innovative jointing techniques, it promises lasting strength and timeless appeal.
Pairs perfectly with the Gaze Burvill National Trust Side Table, Long Table, Seats and Planters.
Every purchase supports the careful management of National Trust woodlands.
