We have so many different chairs in the world of furniture: office chairs, designer chairs like the Barcelona chair, garden chairs, stools. And a very special invention from Germany is the Strandkorb, a roofed wicker beach chair. The origins of these traditional German beach chairs are closely connected with the cultural history of the North and the Baltic Sea. Nowadays more and more people from Germany, Austria, Switzerland and other european countries as well as from overseas are getting fascinated by this traditional beach furniture. Often inspired during their vacations near German coasts, they afterwards get a desire to buy a beach chair - for their gardens, terraces or even their living rooms. Are you also dreaming of your own oasis of silence and relaxation?
You are invited to read our information and look at our photographs.
We will tell you something about history, basic forms, models, individual
beach chairs and jackets. We also feature special designs and decors.
