CIRCA Garden Seats

Garden Seats

The garden seat, or garden stool, first appeared in elite Chinese gardens as early as the Sung Dynasty (960-1279).

  Garden seats can be used as either a table or seating indoors and outdoors.  Styles of garden seats range from elaborately ornate to beautifully simple and are usually made of porcelain, ceramic, terracotta, or wood.   Garden seats are a stylish way to add color, texture, or a touch of Chinoiserie.
