The Sardinia patio chair brings the weight and warmth of solid teak to a spot that's usually all about plastic and powder coat. Its weathered rustic finish and sled-style U base give it a low, grounded look — the kind of chair you leave out on the porch because it makes the porch look better. Set one beside a side table with a drink on it, or pair two for a quiet corner of the deck.
The frame is solid teak, dense and naturally oil-rich, which is what keeps it resistant to rot, fungus, and the usual wood-boring pests. Natural teak shifts in color as it weathers, and how much it changes depends on your climate, how much sun and rain it sees, and how you care for it. It also expands and contracts with the seasons — that's normal for the material, not a flaw. A teak sealer will help slow the process, though it's sold separately. Grain and knots vary from chair to chair, so no two frames match exactly.
Cushions are foam wrapped in water-resistant polyester with covers made from water-repellent, sunproof fabric. The seams will still take on water in a hard rain or near sprinklers, so bring cushions in or cover them when they're not in use, and set wet ones aside to dry. For the first year, store cushions apart from the teak frame — the wood's natural oils can stain fabric — and flip them up when the chair sits empty until that oil surfacing settles. Everyday marks come up with a mild cleaner, warm water, and a soft brush. An outdoor protective cover is included.
Choose from the available color options to match your outdoor setup. It's a chair built to stay outside and age well doing it — teak that only looks more lived-in with time.
