The material
This chair’s made with a woven resin fibre we call ‘all-weather wicker’ – it’s got very much the same look as natural rattan, but it’s happy being left outside and will make your life much easier (as well as having a longer lifespan).
The seat cushions
All our garden furniture cushions are made from natural-coloured, weather-resistant fabric, so you needn’t bring them inside if there’s a quick summer shower. They’re not completely weatherproof, though, so don’t leave them out all year long or in pouring rain. They’re filled with foam, which is soft but keeps its shape well, and the covers are removable, so they’re easy to clean.
How it feels
Purbeck’s got a high, wraparound back, so it feels really snug, and the back cushions can be shuffled around to suit the way you’re sitting.
Design detail
Purbeck’s edges are neatly finished with a line of plaited wicker. The legs have small plastic feet to protect them from dirt, moisture and scuffs and make the sofa easier to move.
Where we see it
Make the most of Purbeck’s comforting texture by mixing it with the matching coffee table or armchair (or see our Purbeck sofa set). Add some of our storage baskets alongside to hold magazines and throws, and complement its wicker finish.
