Wicker Glider

Elegant Yet Practical for Your Porch

A wicker glider is strong, elegant, and durable. Wicker, also known as rattan, is a very unique material because of its durability and thus used all over the world.

Because of its beautiful appearance porch gliders made of wicker create a relaxing atmosphere on your porch which sets them apart from any other outdoor furniture glider. Add colorful cushions and you will create a warm and inviting seating area.

Natural wicker is made from rattan vine and is well-known for its strength although it does require care to keep it looking its best.

Synthetic wicker include paper-wrapped high tensile wire or plastic which is preferred for use outdoors.

Wicker is easily cleaned and maintained. Be sure you know which type you have prior to cleaning. Paper wrapped wicker does not tolerate water and really shouldn't be used outdoors. Keep your wicker glider away from direct exposure to the sun and use a damp cloth to wipe off grime or vacuum periodically.

You might also want to consider using other pieces of wicker furniture to create a comfortable seating arrangement or even additional storage on your porch. Wicker works great for either.
