Probably the most comfortable chair in the world – the verdict of everyone who owns them.  Contemporary, Stylish and with the arms that wrap around you providing that spot for a glass of something or a cup of teak or coffee.

Rhapsody is created in our Hartlepool factory using the very finest Teak, Oak, Iroko and if requested Sweet Chestnut.  As with all our furniture the hand sanded finish adds that little touch of additional luxury.  Trying is believing!

We create all our furniture using age old techniques, mortice and tenon joints, glued and then screwed.  All the screws all covered by matching dowels.  We ensure the correct screws for the particular timbers, for example teak actually preserves the screws, whereas the natural acids in oak will destroy the traditional iron ones.  So when creating oak furniture we only use high quality stainless steel screws.  As a result a stunning armchair offering style, comfort, created in a way that will last for many years.  Hand made in Great Britain by our master craftsmen.  Who love wood and above all care for and respect our environment.  We all have to nurture the planets dwindling natural resources.

The comfort and durability of Rhapsody is legendary.  It is a heavy chair and weighs approx. 22kgs.  In fact everything you would look for in a handmade stunning armchair is here.

Simple design yet stylish and definitely contemporary. The Rhapsody is available in all our standard hardwoods.  Teak is the very finest timber for outdoor furniture being stable and extremely durable, unlike oak which at times can be unstable, warp and split on occasions.

For those of you who prefer a more rustic appearance Oak, a traditional timber used in Britain for centuries is often preferred as it has the appeal of an old home grown timber.  Our supplies when we can obtain them are British.  However these days most oak is sourced from France, Italy, Germany and Croatia.

Iroko is an African hardwood durable, heavy and dense timber very similar to Teak but lacking the natural oils and minerals.  Favoured by local councils for the large chunky park benches and massive picnic tables we use Iroko for our Gladiator and Hadrian sets also our Olympic and Endeavour picnic tables.

As with all our handmade furniture remember we can create virtually anything you might have seen or have an eye to designing something for your own garden making your furniture totally unique.
