Furniture for gardens does not have to be merely functional.  The imagination of the artist can create inspired seating and tables which may also be sculptural and witty.  A bench may evoke thoughts of the curves of a ship or the furl of a sail; it may reach back through memory, reinventing classical motifs with a contemporary twist.  Both seats and tables offer opportunities to inscribe favourite quotations, or commemorate a loved one or a special occasion.
