Riviera outdoor chair by Talenti with aluminium frame and leather backrest.

Riviera director lounge chair by Talenti

from £2,040

Talenti introduced Riviera to their collection because it nails that tricky balance between solid structure and real comfort in outdoor furniture. Usually, you get one or the other—something tough that’s stiff, or soft pieces that don’t last. Riviera doesn’t pick sides. The aluminium frame gives it a bold, architectural shape, but the leather-finished back and those textured cushions take the edge off. You look at it, and it actually feels welcoming.

There’s nothing flashy or thrown in just to impress. Every detail—every material and proportion—has a reason behind it. That’s why it doesn’t just look good now; it ages well, wherever you put it, through any season. Riviera just fits in, whether you’re putting together a laid-back patio or dressing up a high-end space.

Riviera stands for the kind of design that lasts. It’s thoughtful and balanced, and it doesn’t shout for attention. Instead, it quietly makes the whole space better. And honestly, you can feel that care the second you sit down.

  • What ‘Made to Order’ Means at Abitalia

    At Abitalia, made to order means exactly that. The furniture, kitchens, wardrobes, sofas, lighting and architectural elements we supply are not held in stock or produced in bulk. Each piece is manufactured specifically for a client once a project has been designed and confirmed.

    Our collections are produced by specialist manufacturers and craftspeople across Europe, many of whom have been refining their techniques for generations. Every item is built to the agreed dimensions, finishes and specifications for your project.

    Bespoke Design and Personalisation

    Most projects require some level of personalisation. This may be as simple as selecting a specific finish or fabric, or it may involve adjusting dimensions, layouts or internal configurations.

    During the design process we work closely with clients to refine these details so that the finished pieces integrate properly with the architecture and overall interior scheme. The goal is always the same: to produce something that fits the space precisely and feels considered rather than standardised.

    How to Place an Order

    We do not operate as an online retailer with instant checkout. Our work begins with a conversation.

    Clients typically visit the showroom or contact our design team to discuss the project. We then guide you through the available collections, materials and finishes before preparing drawings and quotations. Once the design and specification are approved, the order is placed into production.

    Lead Times and Delivery

    Because items are manufactured to order, lead times are longer than off-the-shelf furniture. Production times vary depending on the manufacturer and the complexity of the piece, but we provide clear guidance at the time of order and keep clients updated throughout the process.

    When the items arrive in the UK, we coordinate delivery and installation so everything arrives safely and as expected.

    Returns and Cancellations

    As products are made specifically for each client, standard UK cancellation rights for distance selling do not apply once production has begun.

    However, if a product arrives damaged, faulty, or not as specified, we will of course resolve the issue promptly in line with our obligations under UK consumer law.

    Visiting Our Showroom

    Our Poole showroom displays a curated selection of kitchens, wardrobes, furniture and materials from our partner manufacturers. While most pieces are produced to order, the showroom allows clients to experience the quality, finishes and design principles behind the collections we work with.

    Working With Abitalia

    Our role is to guide clients through the design and specification process and to coordinate the manufacturing and delivery of carefully considered interior elements.

    If you would like to discuss a project or learn more about our collections, our team would be happy to help.
