Aprio Lounge Chair from Giati


The new chair from the Aprio Collection from Giati is from a collection of strong, measured pieces, with an emphasis on comfort and sustainability. The Aprio Collection includes seven breathtaking entries; a dining chair, lounge chair, ottoman, chaise lounge, round dining table, square dining table and a square side table. The collection is modeled after the design sensibilities most commonly found in the of the Art Nouveau movement, and the results are a fantastic group of outdoor furniture sure to please. I see this as a more modern, hip version of outdoor furniture, perhaps appealing to the young professional crowd.

Apogee Market Umbrella from Giati

Picking an umbrella for your patio table just got a whole lot easier. These umbrellas are perfect for any kind of outdoor set-up and will immediately give your patio or deck a stylish vibe. The Apogee Collection of umbrellas from Giati are constructed of premium grade teak and are available in octagonal or square shape in 7 ft., 9 ft. or 12 ft. sizes. Bases can be customized as square or round, rolling or stationary. The umbrellas are handmade and feature a finger jointed and tri-staggered pole for greater strength and stability. Although the umbrellas are obviously aesthetically pleasing, their real worth comes from their amazing durability and strength. So often in our outdoor designs, we choose to skimp on the umbrella and then are disappointed when a brisk wind destroys it. Invest in a Giati umbrella and receive the confidence of a handmade product.

Castillo Bar Chair from Giati


At first glance I would have thought the new Castillo Bar Chair from Giati Designs, Inc. was comprised of wood, what with all the hand-carved details such as the fluting on the legs. To my surprise, however, the chair is hand-cast and finished in bronzed aluminum. The woven metal seat is inset into the grooves and seamlessly welded into the frame. This chair is designed and constructed to withstand the outdoor elements but would work in many interior applications as well. The cushions can be upholstered in any fabric from the Giati textile collection creating the opportunity to mix and match, perhaps pairing solids and prints to add an expressive touch to the chairs. The Castillo collection also includes a lounge chair, sofa, loveseat, chaise, ottoman, dining armchair, side chair, side table, coffee table and square and round dining tables.
