Wicker Outdoor Furniture
Wicker is one of the most fashionable types of patio furniture, but has many types and form that can make it confusing to understand. Wicker does not actually refer to the material itself, but to the process of weaving any one of an array of materials. These materials include rattan, bamboo, willow, or even fiberglass resin.
Typically styled pieces are constructed of white or brown, weather-resistant wicker with powder-coated steel frames that will not rust.
The newest wicker furniture is constructed of UV resistant resin, which makes for easy safeguarding and withstands the weather elements far better than in the past. The fact that it is hard to tell them apart is a testament to the manufacturer's cleverness.
Perfect for the sunroom or out on the patio, this stylish resin wicker collection features relaxed, extra-large, deep seating. The finest quality weather and UV-resistant resin wicker is tightly woven around a sturdy rustproof aluminum frame.
The thick boxed style cushions are covered in 100% Olefin, which gives you the comfort of cotton with the strength of canvas. The tables have tempered glass tops. Fully assembled. Unless you purchase
wicker outdoor furniture that is "all-weather", some wicker outdoor furniture will deteriorate with long exposure to sun.
An all-weather wicker chair is a great way to sit back and enjoy the al fresco. While most wicker furniture is easily ruined in harsh weather, chairs constructed from resin wicker can stand up to harsh climates. They are long lasting, and do not fade, split, or shed.

They are not necessarily recommended for regular outdoor use but are great on porches that are protected from rain and direct sun. If exposed to the weather, wicker chairs can benefit from the added protection of a marine varnish.
