How Luxury Teak Furniture can Transform an Interior Scheme

Teak has long been used for outdoor furniture but when it is beautifully designed and crafted with a natural grey patina that harmonises with interiors as well as garden settings, it's a real contender for indoors, too.

Most of our outdoor furniture collection here at Garden Gate is designed by Gommaire and made from sustainably sourced teak. Established in Belgium in 2015, the brand has become an international leader in organic living, providing a complete concept for both indoor and outdoor spaces, along with a wide range of decorative accents. Its philosophy perfectly aligns with ours at Garden Gate: the boundaries between inside and outside should feel seamless. Outdoor spaces are inspired by the comfort and intimacy of a living room and interiors reflect the calm and beauty of nature.

Elegant seating

Gommaire's elegant Sally Bar Chairs look as impressive and comfortable at a kitchen counter or island as they would in an outdoor bar area.

The Carol Sofa or Lounge Chair is a super stylish seating option in an open-plan sitting area or orangery. Any one of our outdoor dining tables is ideal for use as a kitchen or indoor dining table, where its natural teak rusticity will add charm and sophistication to family meal times and social gatherings.

Our Sally Teak Bar chairs are the ideal height for a kitchen island.

Gommaire's designs are brought to life by skilled artisans using local traditions and natural resources of India, Indonesia, Morocco and Portugal. It is their masterful craftsmanship that brings artisanal charm and authenticity into every piece of furniture. Each item celebrates nature and all come together to form a strong overall organic concept.

Our Sally Teak Armchairs complement an old rustic farm table beautifully.

While a few of our indoor pieces are designed for interior use only, all our outdoor furniture will also look equally at home indoors. Outside, natural teak becomes even more beautiful with age, the elements and sunlight serving to enhance inherent characteristics and variations in structure and colour that may evolve over time – all very much part of the organic story.
