Hanging Chairs

Our hanging chairs include egg hanging chairs, and every design suits outdoor spaces, giving you somewhere to sit and swing gently. Most are at home in the garden, and some also suit a living room. We stock them in steel, fabric, rattan and polyrattan, with grey, anthracite and green finishes. Some are extra-large, so measure your space and leave clear room for the chair to sway.

Hanging chairs for the garden and the house

We hand-pick hanging chairs that give you a place to sit apart from the rest of the seating, rocking a little as you settle in. Our range covers single seats sized for one and wider designs that take two, most woven over frames made to live outdoors.

Egg hanging chairs

The egg shape is the one most people picture: a rounded basket that wraps around you, open at the front, hung from a curved stand so it needs no beam or ceiling fixing. We hold these in single and two-seater widths. The deeper shell gives more shelter from wind and low sun, which makes it the shape to choose if the chair will sit somewhere exposed.

Swing chairs and where they sit

A swing chair and a hanging chair are the same idea worked differently. A swing seat is a bench on a frame, made to be shared and to sit level. A hanging chair is a single suspended seat that turns and rocks. If you want somewhere for two people to sit side by side, a swing seat is the better fit; if you want a seat to yourself, a hanging chair is the one.

Built for outdoors

Outdoor seating has to cope with more than indoor furniture, so the weaves here are PE rattan and wicker over powder-coated steel or aluminium frames, chosen to handle sun, damp and changing seasons without splitting or fading. Cushions are supplied with the chairs that use them. Like any outdoor furniture, a hanging chair keeps its finish longer if it is covered or brought under shelter through winter.

Setting up a hanging chair

Some come with a stand, so there is no drilling and nothing to fix to a beam. You need enough clear floor for the stand's footprint and enough headroom for the hanging point, both of which are listed on the product page. Leave room around the seat for it to swing without knocking a wall or a table.

Choosing between them

Start with who will use it. A single seat suits a reading corner or a balcony; a two-seater needs more floor but gives a spot to share. Then look at where it will stand, because an exposed position suits a deeper shell and a sheltered one leaves the choice open. Our range is small and hand-picked, so the differences between designs are worth reading rather than skimming.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an egg hanging chair?

An egg hanging chair is a hanging chair with a rounded, egg-shaped seat that sways gently as you sit in it. We stock egg hanging chairs alongside our other hanging chairs, and every design in the range suits outdoor spaces.

What should I check before buying an egg hanging chair?

Check its height, width and the weight it is rated to hold, then make sure the spot you have in mind is level and leaves clear room for it to sway. Our hanging chairs come in steel, fabric, rattan and polyrattan, so think about which material and finish suit your outdoor space.

Do your hanging chairs come with a stand?

Yes. Some are supplied with their own stand, so nothing needs fixing to a beam or a ceiling. The stand's footprint and the overall height are listed on each product page.

What is the difference between a hanging chair and a swing chair?

A swing seat is a bench on a frame, made to seat two or more people level with each other. A hanging chair is a single suspended seat that turns and rocks. We list both, so it is worth checking which shape a design is before ordering.

Can a hanging chair stay outside all year?

Most weaves and frames here are built for outdoor use, but like any outdoor furniture a hanging chair keeps its finish longer with some protection. Covering it or bringing it under shelter through heavy rain, frost or winter helps.

How much space does a hanging egg chair need?

Enough clear floor for the stand's footprint and enough headroom for the hanging point, both given on the product page, plus room around the seat so it can swing without knocking a wall or a table.

Do you have hanging chairs for two people?

Yes, our range includes wider two-seater designs alongside single seats. The product title says whether a chair is a single or a double.
