Outdoor dining furniture that combines the warmth of teak with the practicality of aluminium. The GRATTONI CRETA set is designed for professional catering environments where appearance, durability and ease of handling matter. The varnished aluminium frame mimics the grain and colour of teak, giving the set a natural look without the weight or maintenance of real wood. This makes it suitable for terraces, beer gardens and event spaces that need to switch between casual and formal settings quickly.
The set consists of stackable armchairs and a matching table. Stacking is the key principle: chairs nest together vertically, reducing storage space to a fraction of what separate chairs would require. The chairs have a variable back height, allowing them to be adjusted for comfort or to fit under tables of different heights.
To use the set, the operator unfolds the chairs from their stacked position, adjusts the backrest if needed, and places them around the table. The lightweight aluminium construction means one person can move several chairs at once, and the entire set can be repositioned without heavy lifting equipment. The varnished finish resists outdoor conditions, so the set can remain in place during service without risk of weather damage.
The frame is made of aluminium, chosen for its resistance to corrosion and its light weight. The varnish gives the aluminium the appearance of teak, standardised across the set for a uniform look. The weight of each armchair is 8 kg, which allows easy handling but is enough to prevent the chairs from being blown over by wind.
The dimensions of the armchair—770 mm deep, 840 mm wide and a back height adjustable between 350 mm and 750 mm—determine the space each diner occupies and the clearance needed for stacking. These measurements also ensure the chairs fit under standard catering tables, allowing the set to be stored compactly when not in use.
Cleaning is straightforward: the varnished aluminium surface can be wiped down with a damp cloth and mild detergent. The absence of fabric or cushions eliminates the need for deep cleaning or stain treatment, which is important in high-turnover catering environments. The chairs can be stacked immediately after wiping, so there is no downtime between services.
The CRETA set is part of the GRATTONI outdoor furniture range, positioned for professional catering use where appearance and functionality are equally important.
