The Sardinia dining chair brings a relaxed, weathered look to outdoor meals, pairing a solid teak frame with a sled-style U-shaped base in a rustic grey finish. It's the kind of seat that feels at home on a covered patio or pulled up to a long table under the trees — modern and contemporary in line, but softened by the natural grain and knots that make each piece a little different from the next.
Teak is the workhorse here. It's dense and oil-rich, which is why it holds up against rot, fungus, and most wood-boring pests, and it will weather to a silvery patina over time depending on your climate and how much care you give it. The frame expands and contracts with the seasons, so expect it to move a little. A teak sealer is recommended to keep it looking its best, though it's not included.
The seat cushion is wrapped in water-resistant polyester fabric with covers made from water-repellent, sunproof materials, over a foam blend that stays comfortable through a long dinner. One honest note: seams will let water through in a real downpour, so bring the cushions in or cover them when the weather turns, and set them aside to dry after use. For the first year, store the cushions apart from the teak frame so the wood's natural oils don't stain the fabric.
Offered in a choice of colors to suit your setup, this is a dining chair built to be used, not just admired — solid teak construction, a comfortable foam seat, and a finish that only gets more character with time outdoors.
