Why is garden furniture so dull?

I have a garden chair which I love. It must be about 10 years old, we got a pair of them.

By googling today I find its the Outwell Rosario chair, but mine is a high backed reclining chair and I cant find any images of it on line. Its got quite a jaunty striped pattern. Its probably on its last legs

I want to buy another couple but they dont seem to exist

I need a chair that folds up for storage (these are apparently camping chairs) but without a bottom cross bar as I find my feet get tangled up in them and I like it to recline slightly where you just adjust the arms

But for the love of god, is there any other colour that garden furniture comes in other than black, grey navy or griege. Its awful.

I want bright poppy colours, cheerful patterns.

Not exactly what you're looking for maybe but at least comes in 3 bright colours!

Again fab colour, this is what I like, really bright poppy colours. But I want a proper chair with arm rests and no bottom cross bar.

I actually have this one in a nice blue. It's a good comfy chair, has that bottom bar though.

Again lovely colour but yes that bar is what I dont like

I don't have any helpful links unfortunately, but I have very plain garden furniture and I brighten it up with outdoor cushions. I have a pastel blue/green set for spring and a bright orange/yellow set for summer and I'm currently eyeing up a lovely pink set! I love being able to swap them round and changing the feel of the garden in just a few minutes.
