Garden furniture defines outdoor living. Four material families dominate—each with distinct trade-offs.
Oak, pine, teak, cedar, eucalyptus. Stained/painted. Natural beauty. Maintenance spectrum: teak (minimal) to pine (annual). Compact to expansive. Universal appeal.
Aluminum, steel, wrought iron. Powder-coated. Near-zero maintenance. Decades lifespan. Modern to ornamental. Heavier than plastic, lighter than wood.
Resin, polypropylene. Cheapest entry. Lightweight. Fades, stains, cracks in 2–5 years typically. Premium resins approach metal longevity. Best for: budget, temporary, rental.
Hand-forged or cast. Gray patinas. Classical silhouettes. Indestructible. Contrasts nature beautifully. Minimal maintenance. Suits every style. Investment piece.
Furniture outlasts trends. Select for the garden you're becoming, not just the garden you have. Quality in any material beats compromise in all.
