Enjoy the classic cocktails of the Pacific and the Orient right in the comfort of your own home with the furniture and atmosphere to suit. You can create your own 'Tiki' bar with our bamboo bar stools for that authentic Polynesian feel.

Bamboo

Bamboo is a variety of grass, which varies in height from twelve inch plants to huge timber bamboo species that can grow to thirty or forty meters and more. Growing in a diverse range of different climates in jungles and high on mountainsides but also now widely cultivated in more temperate climates for its undeniable natural beauty. Bamboo species are classified by the types of roots they have. Some are called runners which tend to spread quickly and others are classified as clumpers, which slowly expand from the original location. There are also species that are a mixture of these types. Generally, the temperate bamboos tend to be runners and the tropical bamboos tend to be clumpers. Bamboo is both useful and decorative. In many parts of the world it is both food, the primary construction material and is used for making great variety of useful objects from kitchen tools and utensils, to dinnerware, plate's chopsticks and paper.

Conclusion

It is truly an amazing fact that the dead-ringer for bamboo and thatch was actually durable PVC that weathers beautifully through the seasons and the merriment of party guests. Beneath the seven-and-a-half-foot-tall faux thatched roof, guests will enjoy the Polynesian spirit while perching atop one of the four 30"-tall stools placed along the expansive bar. Amidst details like woven corners and faux bamboo columns, one can conveniently pull stemware down from the glass rack or grab bottles from the storage shelf below.
