从一家茶木店改名叫 Dutch Garden
荷兰纳尔登的 Dutch Garden 卖的是高档花园家具:躺椅套装、餐桌、餐椅、遮阳伞,还有椅套、家具罩这类小件。老板 Jered Beumer 2013 年接手一家只做茶木的公司 De Teakspecialist,那时候店里只有 Garden Teak 和 Woodens 两个自有牌子,设计和进口都自己做。
2014 年起他和妻子 Laura 一起经营。2018 年公司改名叫 Dutch Garden,理由写在介绍页上:De Teakspecialist 这个名字已经配不上他们做的事。改名之后腾出手来,目录里添了别的材质,也添了别的牌子。选货由他们自己定,不是什么都卖。口号写在页面上:Always all the way。
纳尔登的两千平米展厅
展厅在北荷兰省的纳尔登,面积两千平方米。店方自己介绍,这是 Borek 的体验中心,同时是荷兰最大的 SUNS 品牌店,也是挂着这两个牌子的最大展厅之一。家具、绿植和配件摆在一起,看不出是卖场的样子。
营业时间:周二到周五上午十点到下午五点半,周三从十一点开始,周六十点到五点,周一休息,周日只接受预约。展厅备着咖啡、茶和冷饮,给孩子留了玩耍区和换尿布的地方,也能连无线网。不方便到店,可以约一次免费的视频展示,顾问坐在家里把家具一件件讲给你听。

目录里到底有多少家具
站方自己公布的是一千四百九十二款商品、一百五十二个分类,逐页清点下来也是这个数。按分类页里逐页翻到的件数看,花园椅一百八十八款,餐桌一百四十八款,躺椅套装一百三十四款,家具罩一百三十七款,躺椅长凳一百二十九款,遮阳伞九十六款,日光床五十七款。

材料上分木质、铝合金、绳编、编织几路,木质三百零一款、铝合金二百二十二款、绳编椅七十六款、编织椅二十一款,柚木单独成一路,六十五款。经营范围里还有露台遮盖、户外灯、花盆和收纳箱这些周边。

配送和上门
荷兰境内一周内送到,比利时十天。标准配送送到门口,订单满一千欧元免运费,不满收五十欧元;连拆包带组装一起做的送货服务,满三千欧元免,不满收一百二十五欧元,这项只管底层的平地。周二到周六送。坐垫要定做的,约三周才出货。十四天内可以退,商品得没动过,最好连原包装一起退回。
送到国外也行,只是要单独问价。站方的配送名单列着五个国家:比利时、保加利亚、德国、卢森堡和荷兰;结算页的币种菜单却列了八个市场,多出丹麦、奥地利和瑞士。问答页里写的是家具发往整个欧盟,其余欧盟国家可以先联系再算运输费。
清洗与过冬
买回家之后还有一整套服务,叫 Dutch Garden Care。上门清洗是一档,洗完顺带做保护处理又是一档,坐垫的深度清洗单独算。整套餐桌椅收走、擦干净、晾干存好,等三月再送回来摆好,这叫 Complete Winter Care;商用场地另有针对的做法。
顾问可以上门看你家的院子,一起商量怎么摆、哪种材料耐造、颜色怎么配。站上另有一个知识库,分成讲清道理、怎么做、找灵感、看新货四块,一共二十二篇文章,讲的是柚木为什么会变灰、遮阳伞怎么挑、坐垫怎么洗这类事。
From a teak shop to Dutch Garden
Dutch Garden in Naarden, the Netherlands, sells high-end garden furniture: lounge sets, dining tables, chairs, parasols, plus smaller items such as cushions and furniture covers. Owner Jered Beumer took over De Teakspecialist, a teak-only company, in 2013. Back then the shop carried two brands of its own, Garden Teak and Woodens, both designed and imported in house.
He has run the business with his wife Laura since 2014. In 2018 the company changed its name to Dutch Garden, and the reason is on the about page: the name De Teakspecialist no longer fitted what they were doing. The rename left room to add other materials and other brands to the range. Selection is their own, and they certainly do not sell everything. The motto on the page reads: Always all the way.
A 2,000 m² showroom in Naarden
The showroom sits in Naarden, in the province of North Holland, and covers two thousand square metres. The shop describes itself as a Borek experience centre and at the same time the largest SUNS brand store in the Netherlands, and one of the biggest showrooms carrying both names. Furniture, greenery and accessories are arranged together, and the place does not read like a shop floor.
Opening hours are Tuesday to Friday from 10:00 to 17:30, with Wednesday starting at 11:00, Saturday from 10:00 to 17:00, Monday closed and Sunday by appointment only. Coffee, tea and soft drinks are on offer, there is a play corner and a changing table for children, and the wifi works. If coming in is awkward, you can book a free video presentation, where an adviser walks you through the pieces from home.

How big the catalogue really is
The shop puts the figure at 1,492 products across 152 collections, and a page-by-page count comes to the same number. Counting what the category listings actually hold, garden chairs come to 188 pieces, dining tables 148, lounge sets 134, furniture covers 137, lounge benches 129, parasols 96 and sunbeds 57.
On brands, 237 products carry the Dutch Garden name, mostly tablecloths, napkins, furniture covers and installation options. SUNS accounts for 355 products, Borek for 264, Max & Luuk for 211, YOI for 138, Jardinico for 56, Apple Bee for 50, Wolfwood for 32, Golden Care for 29, Platinum for 27, Umbrosa for 23, Brafab for 20, Garden Teak for 19, Wünder for 15, Heatsail for 9 and Cane-Line for 5, plus one each from BUNGALOW Denmark and Fatboy. The brand counts add up to exactly 1,492. The about page names two brands of their own, Garden Teak and Wolfwood.
Materials run in wood, aluminium, rope and wicker: 301 wooden pieces, 222 in aluminium, 76 rope chairs and 21 wicker chairs, with teak kept as a line of its own at 65. The range also covers terrace covers, outdoor lighting, planters and storage boxes.

Delivery and what is included
Orders inside the Netherlands are delivered within a week, Belgium within ten days. Standard delivery goes to the door: free from one thousand euros, otherwise fifty euros. The service that also unpacks and assembles is free from three thousand euros and costs a hundred and twenty-five euros below that, and it covers the ground floor only. Deliveries run from Tuesday to Saturday. Custom-made cushions take about three weeks to arrive. You can return within fourteen days, as long as the goods are unused and preferably still in their original packaging.
Delivery abroad is possible too, but the price has to be asked for. The shipping list names five countries: Belgium, Bulgaria, Germany, Luxembourg and the Netherlands. The currency menu on the checkout side lists eight markets instead, adding Denmark, Austria and Switzerland. The question-and-answer page states that the furniture goes to the whole EU, and that other EU countries are handled after a request.
Cleaning and winter storage
There is a full service after the purchase, under the name Dutch Garden Care. Cleaning at your home is one tier, adding protection after the cleaning is another, and deep cleaning of the cushions is priced separately. A full lounge or dining set can be collected, cleaned, dried and stored over winter, then brought back and put in its place in March, which is what Complete Winter Care covers; commercial sites have their own arrangement.
An adviser can come and look at your garden, working out the layout, which material holds up and how the colours should sit. The site also keeps a knowledge base, split into the reasons behind things, the how-to, inspiration and new arrivals, with twenty-two articles in it, on questions such as why teak turns grey, how to pick a parasol and how to wash cushions.
