Using materials like natural wickers, solid woods like teak and timber and weather resistant aluminium or steel will ensure you can enjoy your outdoor Hampton style furniture for many years. Furthermore, these materials and tones work great in a classic Hamptons style.

The beautiful fine cane weave and aged finish of the Hamptons sofa and slipper chair is can withstand harsh weather and heat when cared for properly. Rattan is a very durable and resistant material, but we recommend protecting it with a cover or place in an alfresco space.

A lovely addition is the Calais coffee table. A simple round rattan coffee table with handwoven rattan and full wood veneer top. The large surface provides plenty of space to arrange decor items or offer space for drinks and snacks. Due to lightweight material, you can easily move it around and use indoors whenever you need extra surface space.
