I’m looking for patio furniture and keep seeing “wicker chairs.” What exactly does “wicker” mean—is it a material or a style?
"Wicker" actually refers to a weaving method, not a specific material itself. It's one of the oldest furniture-making techniques in history. A wicker chair is made by weaving flexible strands, like natural rattan, willow, reed, or bamboo, around a sturdy frame. Today, you'll also find synthetic wicker made from resin or plastic, which is popular for outdoor use because it's weather-resistant. So, it's known for being lightweight, sturdy, and airy, perfect for creating a relaxed, casual look on porches, patios, or sunrooms.
