Gloster is a luxury outdoor furniture manufacturer founded in 1960, operating one of the world's largest teak furniture factories in Indonesia with over 1,000 craftspeople. The brand collaborates with designers including Henrik Pedersen and Cecilie Manz, and holds FSC certification for its teak supply chain. Collections combine Scandinavian-influenced minimalism with warm materiality across sofas, dining sets, and loungers.
Gloster has established itself as one of the most respected names in teak outdoor furniture, building on decades of experience since its founding in 1960. The brands premier offering is sustainably sourced, plantation-grown teak crafted into furniture of exceptional quality -- the weight, grain selection, and joinery of Gloster pieces set a benchmark in the material. Collaborations with designers like Henrik Pedersen and Povl Eskildsen have introduced contemporary forms while preserving the warmth and authenticity that makes teak so appealing. The Zenith and Grid collections demonstrate how modern design and natural materials can coexist beautifully. Beyond teak, Gloster has expanded into aluminum and all-weather wicker with consistent quality. The finishing and hardware across the range are notably superior to many competitors. Pricing is appropriate for the material quality and construction standards. Gloster may lack the fashion-forward excitement of some European competitors, but for buyers who prioritize material quality, construction excellence, and quiet design sophistication in their outdoor furniture, it is an outstanding choice.
