Description
The Talara 3 Piece Lounging Set with Round Side Table offers a stylish blend of modern design and classic outdoor charm, combining FSC-certified Acacia wood with a natural rope weave for a well-balanced, elegant finish. Designed to complement both lounging and dining spaces, this range helps you create a coordinated and sophisticated outdoor setting tailored to your lifestyle.
Every item in the Talara collection is crafted from premium Acacia wood, which is laminated during the manufacturing process to provide additional protection against scratches, moisture, and everyday wear. This coating will gradually fade over time, so consistent maintenance is recommended to preserve the wood’s strength and appearance. To reduce the risk of swelling or fine surface cracking, it is advised to treat the wood two to three times a year with a teak or hardwood protector. The smooth Acacia finish works beautifully alongside the natural rope detailing, creating a contemporary yet earthy aesthetic. Finished with soft beige cushions, the set delivers a perfect combination of comfort and understated elegance.
Ideal for compact outdoor areas, the Talara armchair and side table bistro set is perfect for smaller patios, balconies, or cosy garden corners. Limited space doesn’t mean compromising on style, and this set ensures you can still enjoy comfortable and attractive outdoor seating. The accompanying side table provides a convenient surface for drinks, snacks, or decorative items.
Designed for convenience and ease, all chairs and seating pieces arrive fully assembled, so you can start enjoying them straight away. The table is supplied flat-packed and requires simple home assembly, with clear instructions included for a straightforward setup. A standout feature of the Talara dining tables is the Terrazzo-style tabletop, featuring a smooth, marble-inspired tiled effect that adds a touch of luxury and refinement to your outdoor space.
To help maintain the set’s appearance and durability, the use of a furniture cover is recommended, and a specially designed cover is included to offer year-round protection.
Combining durable materials with elegant design, the Talara collection delivers comfort, practicality, and timeless style—making it a perfect choice for refined outdoor living season after season.

- 2 x lounge armchairs
- 1 x round side table
- 2 x armchair winter covers

Outdoor Furniture Care & Maintenance Guide
Rope Weave Care
Cleaning Your Rope Weave Furniture
To keep your rope weave furniture looking fresh, simply wipe it down using warm soapy water and a soft sponge or cloth. This will remove everyday dust and dirt with ease.
Aluminium Frame Maintenance
Caring for Aluminium Furniture Frames
If your aluminium furniture has been stored away or left outdoors during colder months, you may notice a build-up of dust or grime. Cleaning is simple — use warm water mixed with mild soap and wipe the frames with a sponge or soft cloth. Once cleaned, the frames will naturally air dry in approximately an hour.
Wooden Furniture Care
Understanding Natural Wood Characteristics
Collections such as Bali, Martinique, and Porto are crafted from natural wood and finished with a light protective PU coating. As wood naturally reacts to temperature and moisture changes, small cracks or splits may appear over time. These are normal features of real wood and do not affect the furniture’s strength or overall durability.
Routine Cleaning
For regular upkeep, wipe wooden surfaces with a damp cloth to remove dust and debris. For deeper care and protection, we recommend using a specialist wood furniture cleaner and protector designed specifically for outdoor timber furniture.
Seasonal Protection
To maintain the condition of your wooden furniture, apply a wood protector twice yearly — ideally once before winter and again during spring. This helps defend the wood against moisture, weather damage, and seasonal changes while extending the furniture’s lifespan.
Cover Usage
Protective covers are generally not necessary for wooden furniture. Consistent cleaning and seasonal maintenance are usually enough to keep the furniture in excellent condition.
Natural Weathering
Over time, untreated or exposed wood may gradually change colour due to sunlight and outdoor conditions. This natural ageing process enhances the character of the furniture, although regular care can help slow down these changes.
Cushion Care Instructions
Cleaning Outdoor Cushions
Outdoor cushions should be cleaned by hand using warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Machine washing and tumble drying are not recommended, as this may damage the fabric and filling.
Cushion Storage
When not in use, cushions should always be stored in a dry, ventilated space. Avoid leaving cushions underneath furniture covers for long periods, as trapped moisture can lead to water marks or mildew.
Ceramic Tempered Glass Care
How to Clean Ceramic Glass Table Tops
Outdoor glass surfaces naturally gather dust, dirt, and occasional mildew from changing weather conditions. To clean, wipe the glass using a cloth with warm soapy water, then buff with a separate damp cloth for a polished finish. Allow the surface to air dry fully afterwards.
Avoid placing reflective items such as bottles, ornaments, or drinking glasses on the table in strong direct sunlight, as concentrated reflections may damage nearby materials.
Rattan Furniture Maintenance
Cleaning Your Rattan Furniture
After storage or winter use, rattan furniture may collect dirt or dust. You can easily refresh the weave by rinsing it with a garden hose and gently cleaning with a sponge or soft brush.
Rattan Expansion & Contraction
Rattan naturally reacts to temperature changes. In warmer weather, the weave may expand slightly and then return to normal as temperatures cool. This flexibility helps prevent the material from becoming brittle or damaged during colder months.
Colour & Weave Variations
Because rattan furniture is handwoven, slight differences in colour tone, weave pattern, and strand thickness are completely normal. Lighting conditions may also affect how the colour appears throughout the day, with some shades appearing warmer or cooler depending on sunlight.
Outdoor Fabric Furniture Care
General Cleaning
Most everyday spills can be cleaned quickly using warm soapy water and a cloth. Outdoor fabrics are specially designed to resist stains and weather exposure.
Following winter months, if the furniture appears dirty or slightly mouldy, the fabric can be cleaned carefully using a pressure washer on a gentle setting. Avoid spraying too closely to the fabric surface.
Removing Tough Stains
For more stubborn marks, use the following mixture immediately:
- 150ml bleach
- 40ml mild soap
- 2 litres of water
Apply carefully, then rinse thoroughly afterwards.
Drying Time
After cleaning or rainfall, allow the furniture to air dry naturally. Drying times will vary depending on weather conditions, sunlight, and humidity levels.
General Outdoor Furniture Information
Can Outdoor Furniture Stay Outside Year-Round?
Yes, all furniture ranges are suitable for year-round outdoor use. However, using protective covers can help shield furniture from harsh weather and prolonged sun exposure.
Sunlight & Fading
Our PE rattan furniture is UV protected to help minimise fading caused by sunlight. Even so, we recommend using covers or positioning furniture in shaded areas during periods of intense heat.
Annual Furniture Cleaning
For best results, clean your furniture thoroughly at least once a year. Remove any leaves or debris first, then wash surfaces using warm soapy water and a soft cloth before rinsing clean.
Assembly Information
Many furniture sets arrive fully assembled thanks to welded aluminium frames. Some items — including tables, parasols, and storage boxes — may require partial assembly upon delivery.
Tempered Safety Glass
All glass used within our furniture collections is tempered safety glass for increased strength and safety.
Rising Table Features
Our rising tables are designed for smooth height adjustment and long-lasting durability. Depending on the model, tables may include either a locking mechanism or a gas-lift assisted function for easy operation.
