Lucia Olefin Fabric Outdoor Dining Chair

Details at a Glance

The Lucia pairs washed teak legs with tightly woven synthetic wicker and a removable all-weather cushion, built to handle sun, rain, and the casual demands of real outdoor living. Its arms give you somewhere to rest a drink or your elbows, while the olefin fabric cushion sheds water and fades slowly over seasons. The Lucia Olefin Fabric Outdoor Dining Chair is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping.

How Well Does Teak and Olefin Hold Up Outdoors?

Solid teak is naturally oily, so it resists moisture, rot, and UV damage season after season without needing a finish coat. The synthetic wicker wrapping the aluminum frame won't crack or unravel in direct sun the way natural rattan does, and olefin fabric is solution-dyed--the color runs all the way through the fiber, so it fades slowly even under full-day exposure. The aluminum reinforcement inside the wicker won't rust in coastal air or poolside spray. You're getting materials engineered specifically to outlast a few summers of hard use.

Do You Have to Bring It Inside for Winter?

You don't have to, but it depends on how harsh your winters run. Teak and aluminum can stay outside year-round; the wicker will hold its shape through freeze-thaw cycles. That said, the olefin cushion resists mildew but will last longer if you store it in a shed or garage once the temperature drops. At 17.5 pounds, the chair is light enough to move without help, so stacking four or five of them in a covered corner or wrapping them in a breathable furniture cover takes ten minutes. If you leave it out, brush off snow so water doesn't pool on the seat.

Where Does This Work Best on a Patio or Deck?

The compact 21.75-inch width makes it a good match for bistro tables or smaller outdoor dining sets where you need to squeeze in an extra seat. The coastal look--washed teak, cream wicker, white-speckle cushion--fits covered porches and sunrooms just as naturally as it does open decks, so you can float the same chairs between your outdoor dining chairs setup and an indoor breakfast nook. Pair it with a whitewashed table and sisal rug to lean into the beach-house vibe, or go darker with wrought iron and slate if you want contrast.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this stay outside all year?

The teak, aluminum, and wicker can, but you'll extend the cushion's life by storing it indoors once frost hits.

Will the olefin cushion fade in direct sun?

Olefin is solution-dyed, so it fades more slowly than screen-printed fabric, but no outdoor fabric stays perfectly bright forever under UV exposure.

Is it suitable for a coastal or salt-air location?

Yes--teak and aluminum both resist corrosion, and synthetic wicker won't degrade in salt spray the way natural materials do.

Do the arms get in the way of a standard dining table?

At 25 inches high, the arms slide under most dining aprons; just measure your table's underside clearance to be sure.

Does this chair ship free?

Yes, LOOMLAN Outdoor offers free curbside delivery to the continental USA with no minimum order.

Is assembly required?

The chair arrives fully assembled--position it and add the removable cushion.
