Creating a style statement on the patio or by the pool with Unopiù's deck chairs has never been this easy.
For those looking to elevate their outdoor decor, Unopiù offers a stunning selection of deck chairs for sale. These deck chairs are not just about aesthetics: they combine comfort and durability, ensuring you enjoy your outdoor oasis for years to come. Whether you're looking for a contemporary design or a more traditional look, Unopiù's range provides options to suit different tastes, including the teak Clio collection featured below.
Traditional, contemporary or unique: a deck chair for every garden
It can be a traditional, contemporary or unique-looking deck chair; Unopiù's deck chair options are made in varied styles to meet different personal needs and preferences. Some deckchairs come with arms, which provide extra comfort while relaxing outdoors, while foldable deck chairs make storage and transport straightforward between seasons. Models fitted with canopies are also available for those who want extra shade without moving to a separate parasol.
Made for leisure activities such as sunbathing or lounging by the pool, these chairs provide additional comfort, perfect for reading or relaxing sessions. During cocktail hours, these deck chairs become comfortable accent pieces around a garden or terrace, equally suited to pool parties or family picnics.
Focus on the Clio collection
Among Unopiù's deck chair options, the Clio collection is a folding lounge chair built around a solid teak frame, chosen for its "sinuous shades of teak wood" that create a tasteful, timeless outdoor atmosphere. The canvas seat is made from white cotton, and a comfortable headrest cushion can be fitted into a dedicated opening in the canvas for extra support while reclining.
Clio measures 67 cm in width and 96 cm in depth, with a seat height of 36 cm, and folds flat for easy storage between seasons. Its minimalist lines and natural teak finish make it equally suited to a contemporary patio, a classic garden setting, or a spot by the pool.

How to use a deck chair around the garden
Deck chairs are made for leisure activities such as sunbathing or lounging by the pool, offering additional comfort for reading or relaxing sessions. During cocktail hours, they double as comfortable accent seating on a patio or terrace, and their light, foldable construction means they can be moved easily between a shaded corner and a sunnier spot as the day goes on, or packed away after pool parties and family picnics.
Caring for a teak deck chair
Teak deck chairs such as Clio are designed to age gracefully outdoors: left untreated, the wood naturally develops a silver-grey patina over time without losing its structural strength. Regular cleaning with mild soap and water is generally enough to keep the frame looking presentable; abrasive cleaners should be avoided as they can damage the wood's surface. Cotton canvas seats benefit from being kept dry when not in use and stored under cover during extended wet weather, to preserve both the fabric and the frame's folding mechanism over time.
