Now is a great time to buy outdoor furniture in Florida as our “season” ends for awhile while the “Snowbirds” head north, east and west. For year round Florida residents, we invite you to experience the very best in outdoor living while taking advantage of end of season sales. Here are some TIPS for choosing quality outdoor furniture :

  • Make a plan: Think about the function and use of your outdoor space. Do you want the furniture to be about sitting as in a living room, perfect for conversation and mingling, or do you want it to face the lake, pool or garden so you can sit side-by-side with a friend or your partner and enjoy the view together? Think about what type of seating, tables and arrangement you’ll get the most use out of before visiting our furniture store in Venice, FL.
  • Consider the elements: When shopping for outdoor furniture you’ll want to consider the exposure to the elements and what materials will work best in your space. At Rattan Wicker and Cane, we have “hospitality” outdoor wicker resin and powder coated aluminum, both can withstand the humid, tropical weather of Southwest Florida. Wicker resin collections are made from high quality synthetic wicker weave and extruded aluminum frames. The extruded resin is made with mildew deterrents, UV inhibitors to protect against sun damage, and is water resistant.
  • Care and maintenance: Think about the easy care and low maintenance of your outdoor furniture. It allows for more time spent with family, friends and time for exercise and doing the things you enjoy in life.
  • Choose quality and comfort: Rattan Wicker and Cane brings you elegant designs built on dependable and lasting construction. Our extruded aluminum products are made from the highest quality material available, commercial grade and domestically milled.
  • Consider seasonal uses: Great patio furniture can be used year-round, especially in Venice, FL where the sun shines just about every day.

If you’re looking for quality outdoor furniture that offers style and comfort, Rattan Wicker & Cane welcomes you! We have the highest-quality furniture, many different collections with lots of choices and beautiful outdoor fabrics that will enhance your outdoor living. Come visit us today.
