Looking forward to lounging on the beach this summer? Me too. Here are some stylish beach chairs that are good for the environment, as well.

1. Sailcloth Deckchairs, £149 from Reefer Sail Company: made from rescued boat and windsurf sails, and FSC certified beech wood. Made in Britain.
2. Deck Chair, $345 from Gallant & Jones: crafted in Vancouver BC, using North American White Oak harvested from well managed forests, and finished with a natural oil. Fabric is custom sewn in Vancouver. Pillow insert is organic cotton, and made in Portland, Oregon.
3. Beach Folding Chairs & Table, $495 from Aether Apparel: Aether Apparel partnered with Environment, a Los Angeles based furniture company, for this project. The chairs and table are made out of ash hardwood, stainless steel hardware, and finished with a matte black water based stain. The set folds down to fit inside a carrying bag that is made from a reclaimed army tent, which was cut and sewn locally in Los Angeles.
4, Wooden Folding Chair, $138 from Laughing Creek Productions: handcrafted in Seattle from recycled cedar decking lumber.

posted by Miche on 06.07.12 at 05:34PM Regarding the "good for the environment" claim: Is the wood on chair #5 derived from second growth logging that carries independent certification accredited by the Forest Stewardship Council? Jatoba, known as Brazilian cherry in the U.S., is one of the largest timber exports out of Brazil and this demand here is what is driving much of the illegal logging in the Amazon. Origin of wood is not specified on their website, other than "Brazil."
