The Story of Fermob’s Bistro Chair
Fermob’s legendary Bistro metal chair still has surprises in store. From New York to Tokyo, it embodies the French art de vivre much like the Eiffel Tower—its twin in history, both born in 1889. Instantly embraced by café owners eager to furnish their first terraces, the Bistro chair quickly became a symbol of conviviality and style.
Its clever folding design, protected under the “Simplex” patent, made it both practical and revolutionary—so much so that it was exempted from patent fees. Ever since, Fermob has continued to refine this small yet iconic chair, ensuring its place as a true French original exported worldwide.
Timeless in appeal, the Bistro chair retains its unmistakable “French look,” with seven gracefully curved steel slats that balance elegance and functionality. Over the years, its charm has only deepened. Today, it comes in Fermob’s exclusive palette of vibrant colours, bringing joy to spaces across the globe—from Bryant Park in Manhattan to Mexico City’s Plaza de la Constitución, or even a cozy Parisian balcony.
Crafted in France at Fermob’s historic Thoissey site, the chair has been continually upgraded for strength and durability. Its seamless folding mechanism, enhanced with plastic clips, ensures safe and easy use. Lightweight and practical, it stores away effortlessly without taking up precious space.
Adaptable to any setting, indoors or outdoors, the Bistro chair is equally at home as a garden seat or a handy extra chair for unexpected guests. And if you don’t yet own one, now is the perfect time to discover the ingenious collection inspired by this original design.
The Bistro range today includes 10 tables and 4 chairs, ready to be mixed and matched to suit your style. Bring colour, charm, and a burst of joy to your terrace with Fermob’s Bistro collection.
