White pigmented terrazzo cement takes sun and rain without fading or chalking the way painted metal will, and the matte finish doesn't get slippery when wet. The Drum 18 in. Round Chalk White Terrazzo Garden Stool is a handcrafted cement piece that works as a side table, extra seat, planter pedestal, or footrest indoors or on the patio, available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. It stands 18 inches tall on a 15-inch round footprint, compact enough to tuck beside a lounge chair or cluster on a deck.

How Well Does Terrazzo Cement Hold Up to Sun and Rain?

Terrazzo cement resists UV fade and moisture far better than painted or powder-coated finishes that flake over time. This stool's white pigment is mixed through the cement rather than applied as a coating, so there's no surface layer to peel. It handles direct sun and summer downpours without discoloration or cracking in dry heat. The matte finish won't show water spots or develop the surface crazing you sometimes see on glazed ceramics after a few seasons outdoors.

Do You Have to Bring It Inside for Winter?

You should. Terrazzo cement is porous, and water that seeps in can freeze and crack the material when temperatures drop below 32°F. If you live in a climate with hard freezes, move the stool into a garage, shed, or covered porch for winter. In temperate regions where nights stay above freezing, it can stay out year-round. Wipe it down with a damp cloth before you store it -- never use household cleaners or abrasives that can dull the matte surface or leave residue that traps moisture.

Where Does This Work Best on a Patio or Deck?

The 18-inch height puts it level with most lounge-chair arms, so it's ideal as a drink table beside deep-seat sectionals or next to an Adirondack chair. Because it's a solid drum, you can also use it as an extra seat when you need overflow seating -- it's not cushioned, but it's stable. Pair it with pieces from our outdoor garden seats collection for flexible seating clusters, or flank a console in a covered entryway with two of them as plant pedestals. If you're working with outdoor bar stools or outdoor counter stools on a bar-height deck, this stool's lower profile makes a good side table at conversation height.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this stay outside all year?

It handles sun and rain well, but you need to store it indoors during freezing weather to prevent cracking -- water trapped in the cement can expand when it freezes.

Will the finish fade in direct sun?

No, the white pigment is mixed through the cement rather than applied as a coating, so UV exposure won't bleach or yellow it the way paint does.

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

Yes, terrazzo cement doesn't rust or corrode, so salt air won't damage it -- just rinse it occasionally to keep mineral buildup from dulling the matte finish.

Can I use this as a side table?

Absolutely -- the 15-inch round top holds drinks, books, or a tablet at 18 inches high, perfect beside a sofa or lounge chair.

How much does it weigh?

The source specs don't list the weight, but solid cement stools this size typically weigh 25-35 pounds, heavy enough to stay put in wind but light enough to move by hand.

Is shipping really free, and does it arrive assembled?

Yes, free curbside delivery to the continental USA, and it arrives ready to place -- no assembly required.
