No matter the size or layout of your outdoor space, there are numerous creative ways to personalize it to reflect your own aesthetic. Wicker furniture makes an inviting seating area. We will show you how.
Wicker patio furniture should complement other materials like wood and metal seamlessly, while resin wicker furniture will last long and won’t fade quickly or change color under rain or snow conditions.
Resin wicker
Wicker furniture is the ideal solution whether you need chairs for your balcony or sofas for seating your whole family, providing timeless elegance that pairs beautifully with teak and wood accent pieces for timeless looks that never go out of fashion. Plus, its eco-friendly construction means its an eco-friendly and sustainable material option!
While traditionally made from rattan or cane, synthetic wicker has quickly become one of the most sought-after types of outdoor furniture available today. Constructed using thin strands of weather-resistant plastic that are wrapped around metal frames that resist moisture damage better, synthetic wicker furniture offers durability and long-term use. Aluminum or wrought iron frames tend to provide better moisture resistance.
Some manufacturers assemble furniture sets using aluminum and synthetic resin frames, with handwoven strands using nylon, polyethylene or high-density polyethylene material as desired for each weave pattern and color to complete their desired appearance. Although various other materials such as polyester may also be used as fillers in their weaving process – these materials offer durable yet lightweight solutions which are easy to maintain.
Good-quality synthetic wicker furniture sets can last for decades when protected with quality stain or waterproof fabric, such as vinyl. Wipe it down regularly using mild dishwashing soap and water to remove dirt and grime. Direct sunlight may fade the furniture over time; in hot climates it is wiser to cover it with breathable fabric covers to extend its lifespan.
No matter the furniture style you select, it is vitally important to follow care instructions for any new wicker chairs or sofa. Regular cleaning should help to avoid accumulations of dirt and grime; sweep regularly to keep things looking their best or use soft brushes/sponges and mild cleaner to clean wicker thoroughly. Be sure to purchase high-quality synthetic wicker instead of low-cost PVC varieties that may unravel and crack over time.
Teak
Teak outdoor furniture makes an elegant and practical addition to any garden or patio, boasting natural oils that help shield it against damage caused by moisture and other elements, and dense and strong structure making it resistant to warping or bending. Plus, its natural resistance to insects and fungus make this natural material easy to care for!
If you’re in search of long-lasting outdoor furniture, teak sofa sets could be your answer. Available in various styles and materials – traditional to modern – it comes in colors to complement the decor elements in your outdoor space and offers versatile ways to mix and match pieces for an entirely unique look.
Many people prefer natural wood furniture, particularly teak, in their backyards and gardens. Teak has an unmatched natural beauty that cannot be rivaled by metal or wicker items; its rich hue blends in well with most decor styles while being extremely durable – meaning years of enjoyment await those lucky enough to own teak furniture in their backyards and gardens!
When purchasing a teak set, the key to success lies in choosing furniture tailored specifically to the environment in which it will be placed. If you reside in an extremely cold climate, for instance, its durability won’t compare favorably to one meant to withstand warmer climates like warmer-temperature areas; similarly for very hot environments; natural wicker or rattan may fade rapidly under constant exposure to direct sunlight.
If you’re shopping for teak outdoor furniture, be sure to choose pieces crafted with high-quality wood. Teak furniture’s durability and longevity more than justify its higher cost; pieces sealed with sealers can help protect them against weather elements; sealers can be found at most home improvement stores for relatively cheap; they can even be easily reapplied if need be.

Metal
Modern outdoor wicker sofas have evolved beyond their fibrous predecessors to become weatherproof HDPE (High-density polyethylene). Available in multiple weave styles and easily maintained, modern outdoor wicker sofas make a timeless choice for patio settings ranging from elegant city apartments to suburban sunrooms, vacation homes or condominium complexes with pools.
Wicker patio sofas provide the ideal setting for cozy conversations, seating two to three comfortably. Larger than loveseats but smaller than sectionals, wicker sofas make an excellent addition to large or small patio spaces alike. Maintenance for this furniture requires simply regular sweeping/vacuuming to remove dirt and debris, with mild dishwashing soap/water used to wash any larger stains away.
Wood
Natural wicker furniture has long been a mainstay in outdoor patio settings. Be it on the porch of an urban apartment building, overlooking lapping waves at an ocean cottage, or nestled into an elegant parterre garden in Provence; its elegant style can fit perfectly on modern city terraces and suburban sunrooms alike. Today’s wicker is constructed using advanced materials that ensure its long-term beauty and durability – unlike its fibrous predecessor that frayed easily due to damp conditions.
Outdoor wicker sofas come in all forms and shapes, from those designed to seat two or three people to larger sofas that can be configured into sectionals. Rent-A-Center has modern woven wicker furniture ranging from coastal chic collections to Nordic inspired pieces that will transform the look of any backyard.
