Bolero Marston Rattan Side Chair, Pack of 2

The Bolero Marston is a side chair built around an aluminium tube frame finished with a wood grain effect paint, giving it the visual warmth of timber without the weight or maintenance demands. The seat and backrest are woven from artificial rattan, which provides a wicker-style appearance while being considerably more resistant to moisture, fading, and general wear than natural materials. Chairs are supplied in pairs.

Artificial rattan is commonly used in covered outdoor areas, terrace seating, café dining rooms, and hospitality venues where a relaxed, natural aesthetic suits the environment. It handles the kind of daily use typical of a busy café or restaurant — stacking, moving between tables, exposure to variable humidity — without the deterioration you'd see from natural rattan over time. At just over three kilograms per chair, the Marston is light enough to be repositioned easily during service.

Practical points worth noting before ordering:

• Aluminium frame resists corrosion — suitable for covered outdoor and semi-open areas
• Artificial rattan resists fading and moisture better than natural alternatives
• Lightweight build makes repositioning and storage straightforward
• Wood grain frame finish works well alongside timber or neutral interior schemes
• Sold in packs of two — factor this into quantity planning

These chairs are well suited to cafés, wine bars, bistros, and hotel dining areas where a relaxed aesthetic is appropriate. They are not designed for heavy-duty contract environments requiring stacking chairs in large numbers. For venues needing higher-volume seating with robust stacking capability, a purpose-built contract chair may be a better fit.
