Choosing and Caring for Patio Wicker Furniture
Patio Wicker
While some people think of screened in sun porches when they think of wicker furniture, it can also be great for the outdoors. Patio wicker furniture is quite popular and for good reason – it is affordable, durable and beautiful. If you think wicker can’t hold up outside, think again. Today’s wicker garden furniture choices are made to withstand most everything Mother Nature throws at it. Not only is the wicker strong on its own it is usually treated to make it extremely weather resistant. You’ll love the exotic look this type of furniture imparts to your patio area.
One of the most captivating sets is the Wicker Capsule Conversation Set. It comes with four chairs rather than two and a durable table featuring a base made from aluminum. The wicker is made for all weather conditions and is designed to remain practical and beautiful for years to come. The most unique thing about this particular set is how the table and chairs fold up into a capsule shape for super easy storage, even in areas with little space. The wicker comes in white, dark brown or black while you have a cushion color choice of orange, sand or veridian.
Another wicker set with seating for four is the Lotus Wicker Patio Set. The chairs are backless and designed in a crescent shape for a decidedly modern look. The wicker table has a glass top for holding candles, food and drink. The resin wicker is dark brown in color and needs virtually no maintenance other than a hose down when dirty. This wicker is made to stand up to the elements. The finishing touch are cream colored cushions that stand out beautifully against the dark background.
If you are seeking a patio wicker set with backs on the chairs, take a look at the Toulon Bistro Set. This set is also done in dark wicker, with your choice of light ocean blue or natural cushions. The barrel chairs have backs, and the ottoman doubles as a table because it comes with both a cushion and a glass top. This set does have less seating than the aforementioned Lotus Patio set but also has a different look to it. With some comparison shopping you can find the perfect outdoor wicker set to spruce up your patio area. The outdoor wicker of today is sure to impress with its beauty and function.
