Bistro Set Overview
Bistro sets are those rare furniture pieces that bring together the best of many different worlds. Ornate and inviting, casual yet elegant, both decorative and functional: bistro sets are all of these and more, an urbane conjuring of Old World hospitality that fits right in to any setting, whether outdoor, indoor, or commercial.
What Is a Bistro Set? Bistro set chairs often feature decorative elements such as scrolls or curls, and chair backs are typically slatted or latticed. Bar style bistro sets are tall and slender, their appearance reminiscent of the streamlined forms of artists such as Botticelli or Modigliani. The total effect is always charming, making bistro sets ideal for intimate conversation or a solitary coffee and breath of fresh air. |

Bistro Set Design
Bistro sets have become ubiquitous in part because of their classic design. The look of black wrought iron is always aesthetically appealing, but many bistro sets also feature detailed tabletop mosaics set in stained glass or colored tile.
Bistro sets are thus easily incorporated into the decor of a porch or patio. French or Italian motifs are popular for home bistro sets. The French bistro set look focuses more on clean, uncluttered lines and strong, solid colors, while Italian themes incorporate floral designs and rough, earthy tones and textures.
Bistro sets have also become highly visible in commercial settings, particularly in coffee shops and cafes seeking to take advantage of their welcoming appearance.
For home use, bistro sets make lovely indoor accent pieces. An outdoor bistro set will give any patio a welcome minimalist appearance, particularly in contrast to the oversized quality of most traditional patio furniture.
