In short: “Daisy 2” No. 7 is terrace furniture made of solid oak: a table with curved ends, two benches and two chairs. The backrests of the chairs and benches are built of slats with rounded tops that resemble daisy petals. The composition, size and finish of the set are agreed individually with each customer.
Terrace furniture by the wall of a house
In the photo the set stands in a cozy corner by a house. Behind the furniture there are two light plastered walls, a brick plinth and a downpipe can be seen below, and on the left are the steps of a small staircase. The floor is paved with gray paving blocks. In the corner, on a stand, there is a wicker basket with violet flowers, and by the stairs a planter with a dark-leaved plant.
A spot like this shows how well the set suits a terrace or a small courtyard right by the house. The walls hold back the wind, and the dark brown color of the furniture contrasts nicely with the light plaster and the gray paving blocks. The furniture fills the corner but leaves enough room to walk past.
Terrace furniture is seen every day: through the window, when leaving the door, when coming home. So it has to be not only comfortable but also good-looking on an empty terrace when nobody is sitting at the table. This set passes that test: even without people, the petal backrests and curved lines create a cozy, lively mood.
The dark finish has a practical benefit too. Dust, small bits of dirt or traces of leaves show less on it, so terrace furniture looks tidy longer. The oak rings are still clearly visible through the coating, and the lighter seams between the tabletop planks emphasize their line.
The dark brown color also goes with other details of the house: wooden doors, window frames or a dark roof. If the terrace floor is light, such furniture becomes a clear accent, and if it is dark, it creates a calm, unified picture. The shade of the finish can be discussed when you order if you want a lighter or an even darker tone.
What “Daisy 2” consists of
The set consists of a table and four seats, each different. This combination lets you seat both the family and guests at the table.
The table. The tabletop is made of several long planks, and its ends are cut in an arc. Because of that, from above the table looks like an elongated rectangle with rounded ends. It is held up by crossed legs joined by a longitudinal beam, so the table stands firmly and does not wobble.
The rear bench. A long bench stands behind the table, by the wall. Its backrest consists of three groups of petals, with three slats with rounded tops in each, joined by two crossbars. This bench seats several people and makes good use of the space by the wall.
The front bench. A curved bench stands opposite. Its backrest is also made of petal-shaped slats, and at the top the slats are joined by a curved crossbar whose ends become armrests. The curved shape lets the bench gently wrap around the edge of the table.
The chairs. Two chairs stand at the right end of the table and at the front left, and the front one has armrests. Their backrests are three petal-shaped slats, and the legs are crossed like those of the table. The chairs are easy to pull out and move elsewhere when more room is needed.
A combination of seats like this is convenient every day. Children or several guests sit on the long bench by the wall, the curved bench with armrests suits a couple, and the chairs suit those who like to sit separately. When the terrace needs more free space, the chairs can be pushed up to the ends of the table and the benches closer to the table.
What the photo shows
| Feature | In the photo |
|---|---|
| Table with curved ends | Yes |
| Crossed legs with a longitudinal beam | Yes |
| Long bench with three groups of petals | Yes |
| Curved bench with armrests | Yes |
| Chairs | Yes, two, the front one with armrests |
| Dark brown finish | Yes |
| Cushions | No |
All the parts of the set are made in the same style: petal backrests, crossed legs and a uniform finish. So even four different seats look like one well-thought-out set.
Why the backrests resemble a daisy
The name “Daisy” is easy to understand when you look at the backrests. Each backrest consists of slats whose tops are rounded and slightly fanned out to the sides, so they look like petals. When several such groups are placed side by side, the bench backrest resembles a row of blooming daisies.
This design is not only decoration. Gaps are left between the slats, so the backrest dries quickly after rain and the wind passes through it more easily. The tops of the slats are rounded, so clothes do not catch on them, and children have no sharp corners to bump into.
The petal motif gives the furniture coziness and a little playfulness. It looks friendly but not childish, so it suits a family terrace, a farmstead and the outdoor area of a small cafe. Flowers look good next to it, as in the photo, where the violet blooms in the basket seem to continue the daisy theme.
There are more similar sets: the garden furniture set “Daisy” No. 8 stands in a garden on a lawn, and the oval oak table “Daisy” No. 16 has a tabletop laid out in rays like a flower.
“Daisy 2” differs from the other sets in this family in the shape of the table and the combination of seats. This shows that the petal motif is not a strict template: it can be adapted to a smaller terrace and to a large farmstead alike.
How to arrange furniture on a terrace
A terrace by a house often has limited space, so the furniture should be arranged thoughtfully. In the photo the long bench is placed by the wall: it does not take up the passage, and those sitting can lean back and see the whole yard. The chairs and the curved bench stand on the free side of the table.
- Leave a passage. Between the table and the stairs or the door, enough room must remain to walk past carrying dishes.
- Move away from the downpipe. Water from the downpipe may splash on the furniture legs, so the furniture should not be placed right next to it.
- Watch the drip line. If the terrace has no roof, water dripping from the edge of the house roof should not fall on the tabletop.
- Do not place the backrests right against the wall. Leave a few centimeters of gap so that the wall and the furniture can dry.
Think about the sun too. A terrace on the south side of a house can get very hot at midday, so it is worth providing an umbrella or an awning there. On the east side it is pleasant to have breakfast, and on the west side to have dinner in the light of the sunset. For a dark finish, direct sun is especially noticeable, so shade helps it stay rich longer.
If you want to complete the terrace, wooden planters with flowers look good next to the furniture. You will find them in the section wooden planters and doors.
Caring for terrace furniture
Furniture standing on paving blocks dries quickly after rain, because water does not collect around the legs. Still, outdoor oak needs regular care. Once a season, wipe the furniture with a damp cloth or a mild soap solution, let it dry and coat it with an oil made for exterior wood. For a dark finish, it is worth choosing a product of a similar shade so that the color stays even.
Pay special attention to the petal slats: their tops and the gaps between them are most exposed to rain and sun. It is convenient to apply the oil to them with a small brush. Also inspect the joints of the crossed legs: if any part has started to wobble, it is better to deal with it right away.
In winter it is best to keep the furniture under a roof, for example in a garage or a shed. If that is not possible, place it against a wall where less snow falls and cover it with a breathable cover.
Do not forget the floor under the furniture either. Sand and leaves collect between paving blocks and hold moisture right at the legs for a long time after rain. It is worth sweeping the terrace regularly and, in spring, when you tend the furniture, checking that no moss or algae have appeared under the legs.
