Folding furniture, developed at the end of the 19thcentury, was immediately popular among lemonade sellers of the day, as it was quick and easy to pack away, which allowed them to avoid paying the licence for a permanent terrace! Fermob developed the Bistro range from the original model described in the ‘Simplex'patent registered in 1889 (and of which the brand is now the trustee) and produced an ingenious, simple collection that is bursting with joy and which has lost none of its charm and authenticity! Bistro continues to delight today, with its distinctive chairs and 10 table formats to mix and match. Furthermore, its typically French style has won fans in Times Square and Bryant Park in New York.
I really like this foldable bistro table for its versatility and sleek design. Its 71cm square size makes it perfect for compact or outdoor spaces, where flexibility is key. I find it works particularly well in modern or minimal interiors, but it can also add a chic touch to rustic or eclectic patios. The foldable feature is a practical plus, allowing easy storage and quick setup for gatherings. Styling tips include pairing it with matching foldable chairs for a cohesive look or stacking it with other furniture to keep spaces open when not in use. The umbrella hole is ideal for sunny days, making it an all-around practical choice for outdoor dining or lounging areas.
