Wicker Furniture
Wicker pieces are sold in a variety of ways. You can find “conversation sets” which feature two chairs and a small end table. You can also find two and three-person sofas, high-back rocking chairs, chaise lounges, and footstools. In all, you will find high-quality wicker furniture with rattan or metal frames in many backyards around the world.
With advances in furniture construction, we’ve seen a move away from the use of natural wicker because of expense and maintenance issues. Nowadays, you can find wicker furniture made of woven all-weather resin wicker. Again, rattan, a much stronger wood, is often used for the frame. As a result, you have strong and durable chairs and tables that can handle all kinds of weather and wear and tear.
Although it’s perfectly fine to sit on bare resin wicker, the woven wood tends to leave small imprints on the backs of your legs if you are wearing shorts or a bathing suit. Therefore, it’s a wise idea to buy patio cushions for your wicker furniture and rattan chairs. Patio cushions come in all kinds of colors and floral prints, and they add an extra level of comfort as you sit outdoors sipping lemonade and enjoying the sunshine.
Tips for buying outdoor wicker furniture and rattan
As with any patio furniture, you will want to shop for long term durability. Stay away from natural wicker furniture, and look for pieces made from woven all-weather resin wicker. These pieces often have a rattan frame for great strength. Whether or not you choose a conversation set, a rocking chair, or a two or three-person sofa, remember to invest in patio cushions, too!
