Open spaces release the heart and the soul. Vast horizons quietly and gently remind us of a freedom lost for centuries. It’s no surprise we love the soft dawn, that we wonder at the ruby and amber of a sunset - lost momentarily as the world revolves. But even nomadic people crave structure. We all need a silhouette against the bright wilderness. A glowing doorway amongst creeping darkness. To step through and to feel at home. We should never dream to improve upon nature, but we can aspire to compliment her.

Gloster’s roots can be traced all the way back to West Africa in 1960, where a band of passionate entrepreneurs and furniture makers took the first steps on a long journey. By the late 1980’s, increased demand and access to plantation grown teak led us to move our factory to Indonesia. Today, the same passion, conviction and pride that launched the Gloster brand, continues to fuel our business. We may live in a different world than the one occupied by our founders, but one thing remains the same - we are furniture makers whose sole focus is to design and build the world’s finest outdoor...

TEAK & PLANTATIONS The benchmark hardwood for fine outdoor furniture for more than 700 years. With a beautiful, soft natural finish, every piece of Gloster teak originates from carefully managed plantations and is thoroughly inspected to ensure that quality endures. A close-grained hardwood with a high natural oil content, teak is exceptionally hard wearing, highly resistant to rotting and almost impervious to the effects of sun, rain, frost or snow - the first and only choice of timber for outdoor furniture. Gloster’s production of teak is characterised by our approach. We understand our...

BETTER DESIGN THROUGH CRAFTSMANSHIP & INNOVATION Skills & loyalty, tradition & progress. Gloster and fine craftsmanship go hand in hand. Our furniture is not the result of random mass production human hands have created every rounded corner and every joint, and the quality of the furniture is the result of our employees’ knowledge and skills. Our customers must be able to feel the link to themselves when they buy our furniture. There must be a common history present, and a narrative of the life that we love to live. The furniture must speak a language that we understand - a language that...

DESIGN AND INSPIRATION Of course, great manufacturing is wasted without great design. Gloster currently works with several world-renown designers to create timeless outdoor furniture. Once a concept is approved, designers work closely with the development team at our factory to further refine their designs. And even in this digital age, we insist our designers travel to and spend time at our factory so they get to know our people, our raw materials and our philosophy.

TRUE CRAFT HAS MANY FACES Just like the oil in our teak, a passion for excellence runs through Gloster. From the timber technician through to the CEO, each is a craftsman in their own way and each takes pride in their contribution to producing the world’s finest outdoor furniture.

ZENITH OMADA SARANAC SEPAL FRESCO ALLURE

COSO LIMA GARDEN SHOWER SWAY BROWN COLOUR New season, new colours, new fabrics, new designs and new materials. Essential elements that combine to define changes, novelties and innovations. Cutting edge design, innovative materials and the application of new techniques combine to create pioneering furniture collections for the modern era.

ZENITH As the sun’s arc describes another day, fleeting clouds and spreading shadows create a patchwork of light and shade. Pushed and pulled by transient light, breezes dip and roll alternately soothing, then interrupting moments of calm. Days outdoors will always bear the weight of uncertainty. There is no perfect solution. But there is a way to move with the elements - to embrace each changing instance to its fullest.

ZENITH Daringly mobile, brazenly inviting, unashamedly indulgent. Rarely has a piece of furniture appeared so unequivocally fit for purpose. Zenith marks the peak of the Gloster design aesthetic. A blend of diverse materials combined in a lounge collection that is simple, yet striking. Modern yet familiar. Luxurious yet practical.

ZENITH Conceived by Danish designer Henrik Pedersen, the Zenith collection consists of a stylish Lounger, matching Lounge Chair, Lounge Chair with Arms and Ottoman. All pieces are based on a softly profiled tubular aluminium frame offering a perfect balance of strength and style which is finished with a resilient Meteor colour powder coat. Seats and backs are formed in one continuous plain from hand woven, subtly textured Wheat colour outdoor wicker and topped with luxurious partitioned seat pads available in a variety of weather resistant fabrics.

OMADA Convenience and calm combine with luxury to define Omada. Based on the timeless principle of ‘less is more’, an authentically textured wicker in Wheat colour is hand woven around an organically shaped tubular frame finished in colour matched durable powder coating. Adjustable nylon glides below ensure combined stability and ease of movement. Above, a quilted one-piece cushion fashioned using Sunbrella outdoor fabrics wraps Omada’s contours, promising unequivocal contentment perfectly suited to outdoor use.

OMADA Alone or together under the vibrating blue of an uninterrupted coastal sky or the impenetrable luxe black of a pastoral fireside night, casual comfort is assuredly the most significant ingredient in the satisfactory confluence of circumstance and situation. Soft, indulgent seating with space to sit, curl or lie combined with a generous single seat configuration that can be grouped - should occasion demand - with irreverent ease, can only add to the perfect enclave.
