Price History
Description
This Venice bistro set from Royalcraft is a versatile choice for balconies, patios and other small spots. The folding table measures 70cm square, with rounded corners and gently curved legs for a refined look. Two matching foldable chairs provide comfy seating. Each piece is made from galvanised steel that's powder-coated for durability.
Our Stylist Says
I love this bistro set for its fresh light green colour, which adds a subtle pop of colour without overwhelming a natural garden setting. Its compact size makes it perfect for smaller outdoor spaces or corner gardens, and it works well in both modern and traditional styles. To style it effectively, consider pairing it with neutral cushions or vibrant accessories for seasonal interest. It’s versatile enough to complement patio furniture or to be used as a stand-alone feature in a cosy nook. Practical tips include keeping it covered during harsh weather to maintain its colour and finish, and adding a simple table runner or small potted plants to create a welcoming, styled dining space outside.

About Marks & Spencer
History and Expansion
Marks and Spencer, often lovingly called "Marks and Sparks" or "M&S", has been a staple in the UK market since its founding in 1884. Over the years, the brand has seen tremendous growth, with 1,064 stores across the UK and an additional 406 locations worldwide as of 2023.
Historically, M&S was celebrated for its commitment to selling British-made goods, pioneering the "St Michael" brand in 1928 which honoured its co-founder Michael Marks.
As they grew, M&S maintained its reputation for quality, fair value, and innovative customer policies, even allowing returns with full cash refunds regardless of purchase date.
Clothing & Home Business Endeavours
In recent years, M&S has focused on modernising its Clothing & Home business, striving to offer contemporary, stylish products that resonate with their 22 million customers.
A noteworthy move was their acquisition of Jaeger in 2021, a brand that shares a founding year with M&S. Under M&S's umbrella, Jaeger remains an independent brand, renowned for its timeless elegance, and is now available on M&S's website and in select M&S stores across the UK and Ireland.
Sustainability and Innovations
Throughout its existence, Marks and Spencer has demonstrated commitment to improving customer experience and sustainability.
In the 1950s, they introduced hygiene training for canteen staff, and by the 1960s had implemented thermostatically controlled refrigerators for enhanced energy efficiency.
M&S has been at the forefront of many retail innovations, from introducing "sell by dates" in the early '70s to enhance food quality, to banning smoking in all their stores as early as 1959 due to fire hazards.
The brand's long standing dedication to quality, customer relations, and sustainability remains evident in their practices today.
