Of course, we have featured the Cassina LC7 Swivel Chair before, but now there is an outdoor version of the Le Corbusier classic.

eBay watch: Vintage Sirram complete picnic set
If nothing else, we are at least topical. So on a warm day, we've found the perfect accessory – this vintage Sirram complete picnic set.
The seller's description isn't overly detailed, so I don't know if everything is original. I suspect it all is – it all fits and it all matches, which is always a good start. That includes two flasks, various containers, cups, cutlery and plates.
Condition looks good, with the possible exception of the case fasteners. They probably just need a good clean though. £35 is the current bid price.
Autograph Oslo daybed from Marks and Spencer
If you loved the space age style of the Farmer's Cottage spheres we featured a little while back, but they were out of your price range, this Autograph Oslo daybed from Marks and Spencer brings something of the same look to your outdoor space with a slightly smaller price tag attached.
The daybed is made from white synthetic rattan and has a 70s feel, further enhanced by the curve of the canopy. If you like the look, armchairs and coffee table are also available in the same range.
The daybed is currently offered with 40% off and will set you back £714.90. You'll still need to pay extra for the canopy or the seating pad.

Monaco hanging chair from Next
Add some sixties style to your outdoor space with this Monaco hanging chair, from Next.
There seems to have been quite a few of these cropping up on the high street recently (compare it to the Cora hanging chair from BHS for example), meaning it's becoming easier to pick up one at a reasonable price. This particular model is not the most deluxe model – it's made from rattan and it's self assembly – but it does give you the look at a high street price.
That price? The chair costs £399.

Victorian Bench by Michael Warren Design
An update on an object you might still see everyday – the Victorian Bench by Michael Warren Design.
Yes, a classic bench, the kind you might see in any park of age and a design that recalls 'traditonal values' and 'invites passers by to sit and enjoy conversation and sunshine,' according to the designer. You don't need a park to enjoy it either, should look great in any garden.
The construction materials aren't clear, but it's certainly a wood of some sort. But we do know the price – £400. Contact Michael Warren Design for stockists.
Luna bistro outdoor dining set at Sparrow and Finch
The good weather isn't meant to last this time but get ready for the next spot of sunshine with the Luna bistro outdoor dining set from Sparrow and Finch.
It's a contemporary design with more than a passing nod to the 1950s. The Fifties influence extends to more than the name alone, with the curved base to the table and the unusual shape of the chairs giving it a distinctive look. In fact the style is one that you might be tempted to bring into your house, as well as putting in the garden.
The set costs £299.95.
