The outdoors, like the indoor one, now knows no borders. Open spaces, both public and private, are increasingly enriched by furniture and furnishing accessories, including tables and chairs. The latter, which have always been ideal accessories for the home and garden, in recent years have evolved into increasingly safe and sophisticated shapes and materials able to satisfy any need. The garden tables and chairs are made of many materials: wood, iron, concrete, wicker, plastic.

It is therefore a question of real masonry works. The concrete can then be painted or tiled. Concrete tables are ideal in country houses always made with masonry kitchens.
