Victorian Cast Iron Garden Set – Bench and Two Armchairs, United Kingdom, Late 19th / Early 20th Century

This Victorian garden furniture set originates from the United Kingdom and dates from the late 19th or early 20th century. The set consists of a bench and two armchairs. Its richly decorative form is characteristic of Victorian garden furniture from this period. The cast iron frames are decorated with elaborate botanical and animal motifs. The centre of each backrest features a decorative medallion depicting a deer surrounded by foliage, while the remaining sections are adorned with floral, leaf, and bird motifs. Openwork armrests and ornately shaped legs complete the highly decorative character of the set. The seats feature newly made slats crafted from solid ash wood. The set has undergone professional restoration. The cast iron elements were stripped of the old coating, protected with an epoxy primer, and finished with a durable polyurethane paint offering high resistance to weather conditions. The wooden elements were newly made from solid ash wood and finished with high-quality yacht oil, which effectively protects the wood against moisture and UV radiation. Thanks to the materials used and the professional restoration, the set is fully suitable for outdoor use and is ideal for a garden, terrace, patio, or an elegant park setting.
