Gloster, natural luxury
Born in 1981 in Bristol, Gloster belongs to those houses that do not simply create furniture: they shape a philosophy of life. One that is also Pacific Compagnie's: living luxury naturally, without the slightest ostentation. From its beginnings, the brand has distinguished itself through its love of teak, that noble and warm wood, whose every nuance and grain it masters. The decision to move production to Java, at the heart of Indonesian plantations sustainably managed by Perum Perhutani, marks a turning point: Gloster does not merely adopt an exceptional material, it adopts a heritage, an artisanal culture, an intimate relationship with nature.
For more than forty years, Gloster has imagined pieces that invite us to slow down, to savor the outdoors as a natural extension of the indoors. In every chair, every sun lounger, every table, we find the same quest: to offer absolute comfort, aesthetic clarity, and impeccable durability.
The international designers who collaborate with the brand — Povl Eskildsen, Mark Gabbertas, Sebastian Herkner, Cecilie Manz — infuse a contemporary sensibility that marries beautifully with Java's traditions. The result: furniture that seems sculpted for light, that converses with wind, shadows, and silence.
Pacific Compagnie's five favorite Gloster creations
The Kay chair, a marriage of elegance and outdoor living
The Kay chair embodies the essence of outdoor luxury according to Gloster: a beauty born of mastered simplicity, perfectly crafted solid teak, and weaving that breathes authenticity. Its soft, slightly enveloping lines offer a generously proportioned seat, while the hand-woven backrest creates a subtle play of transparency, light, and shadow.
Sitting in Kay is to experience an immediate sense of calm well-being, as if the chair naturally embraces the body and space. The warmth of the wood, the fineness of the weaving, and the tactile quality of the materials invite you to savor the moment, to let the outdoor setting become a showcase.
Beyond its obvious comfort, Kay asserts a premium positioning through the excellence of its craftsmanship: certified teak, Javanese artisanal know-how, impeccable finishes. It addresses refined terraces, high-end hotels, and residences where the outdoors must reflect a lifestyle that is both elegant and sustainable.
Kay is tranquility elevated to the rank of design. A true style statement, conceived for influential minds and exclusive interiors.
Structure: solid teak with natural finish. The teak used by Gloster is renowned for its density, richness in natural oils, and resistance to the elements — a choice that guarantees the chair durability, robustness, and UV resistance.
Backrest: all-weather "wicker" weaving (synthetic wicker / braided resin) — designed to lastingly resist outdoor conditions (rain, sun, humidity).
Seat: outdoor cushion (waterproof and UV-resistant fabric) included, designed for year-round outdoor use.

The Grid lounge chair, the elegance of outdoor comfort
The Grid lounge chair embodies the perfect alliance between rigorous geometry and timeless comfort. Its silhouette, designed like an elegant scaffold, plays on straight lines and impeccable proportions, imposing a sculptural presence that invites rest with distinction. On a balcony, terrace, or by a pool, it transforms every moment into a ritual of serene elegance.
Grid gently envelops the body: slightly inclined backrest, generous seat, delicate wire weaving — everything combines to create an atmosphere of refined relaxation. Seated or reclining, one surrenders to tranquility, lulled by the purity of the design and the quality of the materials.
It is a lounge chair conceived for the most demanding exteriors — a signature of discreet but affirmed luxury — perfect for high-end residences or exceptional hospitality venues.
Structure: high-end powder-coated aluminum, resistant to the elements and sea salt — light, stable, and durable over time.

Finishes: high-quality powder polyester for the structure (neutral or elegant tones), weaving available in various subdued colors, guaranteeing a sophisticated and contemporary result.

The Pebble lamp, luminous poetry of nature
The Pebble lamp captures the very essence of outdoor design according to Gloster: a subtle, organic, almost meditative beauty. Inspired by pebbles polished by water and time, Pebble displays a soft, rounded silhouette, both simple and profoundly sophisticated.
When lit, it diffuses a warm and enveloping light, like a moonbeam placed on a terrace or garden. When off, it remains an outdoor sculpture, a tactile and elegant object that elevates the space through its silent presence.
Conceived to accompany summer evenings, moonlit dinners, or moments of relaxation by the water, Pebble creates a soothing ambiance where light becomes an emotion. Thanks to its integrated technology and resistant design, it addresses lovers of discreet refinement, timeless pieces, and natural luxury.

The Sepal coffee table, organic elegance
The Sepal coffee table embodies the natural poetry dear to Gloster: a design inspired by the plant world while adopting a resolutely contemporary language. Its name, borrowed from a flower's sepal, says everything about its intention: to evoke the delicacy of an open petal, the purity of a simple yet perfectly mastered form.
Its top with soft curves seems to rest on the structure like a leaf on water, creating a subtle play between visual lightness and stability. Placed at the center of an outdoor living room, by a pool, or in a hotel lounge, Sepal offers a soothing, almost meditative presence.
It embodies that natural luxury that Gloster masters so well: an object that draws the eye without ever dominating the space, that invites relaxation, conversation, and happy slowness.
Through its organic elegance, formal precision, and the nobility of its materials, Sepal positions itself as an essential piece of high-end outdoor arrangements.

The Salina coffee table, serenity drawn in matter
The Salina coffee table embodies the serene elegance characteristic of Gloster: a piece where form, matter, and light resonate. Inspired by the coastal landscapes from which it takes its name, Salina evokes the softness of shores, the purity of mineral surfaces polished by wind and water.
Its simple, perfectly balanced lines express a discreet sophistication: a luxury without ostentation, made of precision and harmony.
Outdoors, Salina becomes a true visual anchor. Its top with soft contours and minimalist base compose a silhouette that is both solid and light, capable of integrating into the most contemporary decors as well as organic atmospheres.
It creates around itself a climate of calm and refinement, inviting sharing, contemplation, and suspended moments. It is an essential piece, for demanding terraces as well as high-end hotel spaces.
