Barlow Tyrie · 316 stainless & teak
Barlow Tyrie's most-specified contemporary outdoor programme, a 316 marine-grade stainless steel frame paired with FSC-certified plantation teak armrests and a Textilene mesh seat. The proportions are deliberately quiet: a slim 25mm tubular profile, generous arm depth, and a back angle taken from the brand's pre-war dining-room archive. Equinox now extends to 18 distinct pieces, from low-slung occasional carvers to high-dining counter stools, and remains the workshop's first recommendation for hospitality terraces where weight, salt-spray exposure, and visual silence all matter.
The Equinox. outdoor sits within 's permanent outdoor catalog, a position has held as a European specialty outdoor house with established US trade representation. Equinox. is produced in specialty European outdoor materials matched to the brand's catalog tradition as part of 's premium European outdoor programme, with the configuration designed by 's in-house design team.
's outdoor pieces are built around specialty European outdoor materials matched to the brand's catalog tradition. For US trade specifiers, this means Equinox. carries the same material data sheets and US-trade documentation as the rest of the catalog: ASTM F1858 outdoor furniture compliance where applicable, fire-code classification on cushion components, and chain-of-shipment documentation supplied with the invoice. Bespoke fabric or finish substitutions are accepted on COM workflow with confirmed yardage at quote stage; see the Sunbrella and Outdura specifier reference for the workflow at the European factory.
Pricing for Equinox. at US trade typically falls between on quote at US trade volumes, before fabric grade, finish premium, and consolidated freight. Lead time is 8-14 weeks from European factory to US port for standard configurations; bespoke dimensions, COM upholstery, or large hospitality volumes extend by 4-8 weeks. The collection is specified in US hospitality outdoor (boutique hotel terraces, resort pool decks, restaurant outdoor dining) and in premium residential outdoor (lake-house, pool-house, rooftop terrace) installations.
Standard Equinox. configurations ship 8-14 weeks from European factory to US port. Bespoke dimensions or COM upholstery add 4-8 weeks. Hospitality projects above 50 pieces consolidate on a single container and follow the same standard timeline.
Yes. runs a verified US trade programme. Net trade pricing for Equinox. is shared after qualification (designer of record, project scope) and is set under the non-disclosure agreement applicable to all premium European outdoor specifiers.
Most collections, including Equinox., accept COM upholstery and bespoke dimensions within manufacturer tolerance. See the FF&E procurement workflow for the full COM and bespoke sequence, including fabric yardage, factory shipping, and lead-time impact.
Premium European outdoor pieces share a common care pattern: quarterly rinse with clean water and mild soap, twice-yearly inspection of cushions and fittings, and off-season storage of soft goods in freeze-thaw climates. Structural elements (aluminum, FSC teak, steel) typically carry 5-10 year warranties; fabrics and cushions 2-3 years against UV and stitching. US service life on European premium outdoor is typically 15-25 years on structural elements and 5-10 years on cushions, with COM refresh extending the cycle. Documentation and warranty registration are supplied with the invoice at the trade tier.

Specifications
Aftercare
A five-step protocol from Barlow Tyrie's care manual, adapted for American climate ranges.
A soft hose stream is sufficient. The 316 stainless is salt-resistant; teak is naturally chloride-tolerant. Monthly rinsing prevents waterspots on the stainless and helps teak weather to silver evenly.
For mirror-polished sections, a microfiber cloth with stainless polish restores the original sheen. Avoid abrasive sponges, which scratch the brushed finish.
Teak silvers naturally in 6–9 months. To hold the original honey tone, apply Barlow Tyrie Teak Care Set once at install and every spring thereafter. Hospitality clients typically choose unfinished and let the wood weather.
Equinox dining chairs and carvers stack to four high; counter stools stack to three. Cover when stacked outdoors for prolonged absences.
Stainless does not corrode, but joinery hardware can loosen with thermal expansion. A standard hex-key kit (supplied) handles tightening; full re-tension service is offered through the Boston distribution office.
