The unique steamer chair look and amazing comfort of the Plantation Chaise Lounge are sure to make it your favorite piece.
Each heavy, generously scaled lounge is hand-crafted from 1-inch-thick, kiln-dried, pressure-treated southern yellow pine, an American renewable resource. The pine is insect- and rot-resistant, providing comfortable enjoyment for many years to come. All hardware used to assemble the Plantation Chaise Lounge is made from stainless steel. If you choose a finish for your chair, a latex-based enamel is used to make it completely safe and environmentally friendly.
Choose between Pristine, for a flat, full-coverage finish, and Wash, for a distressed, wiped finish.
About Materials Used in Uwharrie Furniture
Many outdoor furniture products carry environmental objections such as tropical lumber harvesting that devastates rainforests and threatens endangered species or plastics disposal that is harmful to the environment. The Uwharrie Chair Company offers pressure-treated pine as a simple alternative to imported teak, painted metal or hardwood, and molded plastic. Treated lumber offers distinct advantages over other traditional outdoor materials. It is insect- and rot-resistant, it may be stained, painted, or left natural, and it is milled from plantation-grown Southern pine, a renewable resource.
The Uwharrie Unique Finish and How It Will Age
The wood used in Uwharrie chairs requires no additional protection from exposure to weather. This is why it's possible to distress the finish, giving the furniture the appearance of time-worn antiques. As Uwharrie products age naturally, their rustic character will be enhanced. You should expect to see some additional loss of paint and some surface cracking; exposed wood will eventually turn dark. But even as nature matures your furniture, the wood and the product will remain structurally sound for years to come.
