Description:

In many contexts, it takes about 25 years to be recognised as a classic. Cars, marriages, furniture? This year, Povl Eskildsen's Riviera sunbed has proved its staying power for a quarter of a century, and it remains as popular as ever. We are very proud of that achievement. Of having created a product that has such a unique and durable DNA in its expression, quality and long history. The sunbed with its teak slat surface, which can be adjusted in length when needed, has become an outdoor furniture icon and SkagerakÍs very own furniture classic.

"Riviera has it all. It is both a sunbed, a plank bed, a coffee table and a guest bed," says Skagerak's shop manager Lotte Grebe. "For many Skagerak employees, Riviera is the first staff purchase. It's my outdoor seat when spring arrives. Where my kids eat their ice cream. Where I stretch out on warm sunny days. And Riviera only gets more beautiful with age, as it turns a beautiful silver-grey."
