Features and Types
Polypropylene Outdoor Chairs
Nardi chairs are the most practical starting point for anyone furnishing an outdoor space. Polypropylene does not deteriorate with humidity, maintains its color over time, and can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Almost all models are stackable: the Bora Bistrotin agave, the Trill Bistrotin mustard or teal, the Netin mustard or willow, the Doga Bistrotin agave. Each model has a different silhouette — the Doga has a slatted backrest, the Net a mesh structure — but all share lightness and ease of storage at the end of the season.
Those looking for a chair with armrests will find the Nardi Borawith integrated armrests in dove grey and the Nardi Palmacream white with a dove grey insert: both stackable, both in polypropylene.
Armchairs and Lounge Seating
For those who want to relax in the garden or on the terrace, there are two different directions. The Nardi Net Loungein dove grey is a stackable polypropylene outdoor armchair: it takes up little space but offers a wide and enveloping seat. The Nardi Acquamarina, on the other hand, is a folding armchair in anthracite: it opens and closes easily and can be stored vertically when not in use.
For a more refined style, the Plust Gumballin aquamarine is made of rotational polyethylene. It has a sophisticated look and is also suitable for indoor use — conservatory, living room, or contract space. Plust explicitly indicates indoor/outdoor suitability for these models.
Garden Tables
Nardi tables complete the outdoor sets. The Nardi Spritzis a round table with a diameter of 60.5 cm, available in white and dove grey, light and stackable — ideal as a coffee or bistro table for two people. The Nardi Net Table 40in mustard is a square side table, practical to place next to a lounge armchair.
Aluminum Chairs
Bizzotto offers solutions with a different aesthetic compared to polypropylene. The Bizzotto Krionis a chair with armrests in anthracite aluminum: the metal structure is visually more robust and pairs well with outdoor dining tables. For the complete Bizzotto range including pergolas and accessories, you can also explore Bizzotto outdoor furniture and pergolas.
How to choose your outdoor furniture
Do you have limited space (balcony, small terrace)?
Choose stackable Nardi chairs: the Bora, Trill Bistrot, or Net stack on top of each other and take up minimal space when not in use. Pair them with the Spritz Ø 60.5 cm table: it's compact and also stackable.
Do you want a relaxation corner in the garden?
The Nardi Net Lounge or the folding Acquamarina are the most practical choices. If the budget is higher and you are looking for a piece with a refined aesthetic, consider the Plust Gumball in polyethylene: it resists outdoor conditions but has a shape that also works well in a conservatory.
Are you looking for chairs for an outdoor dining table?
The Bizzotto Krion with anthracite aluminum armrests is designed for long dining sessions. Pair it with a mid-range table. If you are looking for complete sets with pergolas and aluminum structures, the dedicated section Moia Greenwood outdoor furnitureoffers more structured solutions.
Color: which to choose?
Neutral tones like dove grey and cream white (Nardi Bora, Spritz, Palma) match any flooring — grey tiles, wood, or concrete. More distinctive colors like agave, mustard, teal, and aquamarine add personality to the outdoor space and work well on terraces with green vegetation around.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do Nardi chairs withstand bad weather and sun?

Which Nardi models are stackable?
Several models in this selection are stackable: the Bora, the Trill Bistrot, the Net, the Net Loungeand the Doga Bistrot. This is indicated directly in the product title. This feature makes them practical to store at the end of the season or when you have a variable number of guests.
Can the Nardi Acquamarina armchair be folded?
Yes, the Nardi Acquamarina is a folding armchair in anthracite polypropylene. It opens and closes easily and can be stored vertically when not in use, without taking up space.
What is the difference between Bizzotto chairs and Nardi chairs?

Both materials withstand outdoor use; aluminum with textilene gives a visually softer seat, polypropylene is more compact and easier to clean.
Can Plust armchairs also be used indoors?

Practical pairing guide
A complete garden set is built by combining chairs + tables from the same brand to ensure consistent proportions. The Nardi Trill Bistrotin mustard paired with the Nardi Spritzin white creates a clean color contrast. The Netchairs in willow or mustard go well with the Net Table 40as a side table in a lounge corner.
