Materials and Maintenance

High back outdoor seating is typically constructed from durable, weather-resistant materials to withstand the elements. However, not all materials are created equal, and some require more maintenance than others. Here are a few popular options:

Wood: Classic and timeless, wooden seating offers a warm, inviting aesthetic. However, it requires regular maintenance, including annual sealing and staining, to protect it from moisture and sun damage.

Wicker

Woven wicker or rattan furniture is lightweight, durable, and apt for outdoor use. It requires minimal maintenance, aside from occasional cleaning, and can be left outside year-round in most climates.
