BUY FURNITURE THAT GOES WITH YOUR TASTE
WICKER OUTDOOR FURNITURE
Wicker is a great material for outdoor furniture for a number of reasons, but most notably in recent
years it is the classic look that makes the biggest impact on style. Wicker comes in a number of
different shades to enjoy and whilst being available in synthetic and authentic wicker wood weaves,
it has proven popular as one of the most varied designed types of garden furniture available.
Available in a huge range of styles for your garden, most wicker furniture features the wicker frame
itself, accompanied by cushions and pillows to make the furniture more comfortable. You can simply
buy the wicker frames themselves in most cases, and purchase separate sofa style cushions to
decorate in your preferred colour and arrangement as style is such a personal touch.

Lounging chairs, sofas, tables, as well as dining chairs are available, and due to the way the wicker is
woven, you can enjoy a large range of wicker outdoor furniture that features deep seats for the
addition of cushions, as well as high chair back rests for better support in the garden.
There are two types of wicker that are the most popular which are flat and round weave. This
difference means that whilst the round weave wicker is more durable and robust, flat wicker is a great
lightweight alternative, although found on many cheaper wicker outdoor furniture variants.
When purchasing wicker furniture for use outdoors, ensure that the weave has been UV stabilised, as
well as the cushions which you wish to furnish it with. This will help maintain the colour and finish of
the furniture and the cushions, ensuring no colour fading occurs.

Only buy strong wicker frames that seem well made and durable. There are many cheap wicker
variants out there that whilst look fresh, modern and are relatively low-cost, they tend not to last as
long as the more traditional round weave, heavy wicker furniture that is intended for use outdoors all
year long.
