Skagerak Riviera Outdoor Lounge

Designed in 1991 in collaboration with Danish designer, Povl B. Eskildsen, the versatile Riviera Collection has become an outdoor classic, renowned for its flexibility and straightforward appearance. Taking a sustainability approach, the design optimises the use of materials, using the slimmest possible amount in the teak slats without compromising strength. The ingenious construction is adjustable by design, allowing the pieces in the Riviera collection to transform in both expression and functionality and can easily be supplemented by a comfortable cushion. The remarkably versatile and multifunctional Riviera Lounge can transform to suit a myriad of purposes. Designed to expand in width, the Riviera Lounge can serve as a lounge chair and table, a sofa, or a level surface to use as a sunbed. Made of 100% FSC-certified teak with stainless steel fittings for long lasting functionality.

Proper usage and maintenance


Proper usage and maintenance is vital for getting the most out of the valuable resources we have. Our designs are made to last for generations, but just like everything else, they need a little care to get there.


Teak

Teak is commonly found in Southeast Asia, Central and South America. Our FSC-certified Teak comes from Central America, Brazil and Indonesia, while our non-certified Teak comes from plantations in Southeast Asia and Trinidad; managed to sustain a renewable and reliable supply of wood.

Teak is a heavy, hard and sturdy type of wood. The high content of natural oils makes it highly weather and rot resistant and is therefore a good choice for outdoor furniture.

Cleaning


Do a general cleaning when needed with a suitable wood cleaner and soft bristle brush. Rinse afterwards with clear water and let it dry. Note: Wipe off tables, benches and chairs after dinner and such with a dry cloth.

Maintenance

As the wood is untreated, the surface will patinate over time and eventually turn into a beautiful silvery grey colour. If you wish to preserve or intensify the original honey-golden colour, use a suitable furniture oil on a regular basis. No matter what you choose, the wood will be resistant to everyday wind and weather thanks to the high content of natural oils.

Winter storage

This product is usable in all weathers, all year round. However, if you want indoor storage during the winter months, it is advisable to store the furniture in an unheated room such as a garage or a cellar.

Indoor use

The wood has been dried for outdoor use. Hence, if you wish to use the furniture indoors it may need to be re-tightened once in a while.
