If you like to make the most of your outdoor area, spending as much time as you can outside year round, you will want quality outdoor furniture that doesn't have to be covered or moved around at the whims of the weather. You want solid and durable furniture that requires little maintenance so that you can spend more time relaxing with a good book or entertaining family and friends. Teak outdoor furniture offers you that stability.

The chaise lounge is an amalgam of the day bed and the lounge chair. The day bed is likely the heaviest influence in the creation of the Chaise lounge. The day bed design was originally utilized in Egypt, and has been a continual inspiration for designers across many cultures and time periods. The time period for the merger of the day bed and the chair to produce the chaise lounge is unclear, but this style of lounge began its rise in popularity in the Americas in the early twentieth century. The name "chaise longue" is French in origin and literally means long-chair. The similarity between the French word longue and the English word lounge, the term is commonly mispronounced by most Americans. The pronunciation of "longue" is much more similar to the English word "long" with a long G sound on the end.
