The British have started this culture followed by Americans. Now this is being practiced around the world since a long time. A patio (garden furniture) set normally contains 1 table, 4--6 chairs and an umbrella, also known as parasol. The umbrella is very useful in summer as it protects you from harmful sun-rays and heat. It also protects your food from getting spoiled by any falling object from upside. Long chairs, known as Chaise Lounges are also a part of Garden Furniture sets..
Umbrellas (Parasols) are fixed in a base or a mount in the paving, which comes built-in. Some umbrellas can be moved around tables and some are centered through a mid-table hole. Patio heaters enable us to sit out at cold nights. These heaters can be mounted as well as can be self supporting, operable on electricity and natural gas. Fire pits and portable fire bowls are now widely available for those who want to extend their outdoor living.
Garden Furniture sets. are manufactured by using different materials depending on the cost, durability and strength of the material. The main components used in furniture making are wood, fiber, plastic, aluminium, teakwood, wicker and wrought iron. Garden furniture made from wood may suffer if exposed to extreme weather conditions; therefore it needs a proper maintenance and treatment. Teakwood is common material in wooden furniture. Teak contains chemical, named silica, which is instrumental in making the wood strong and resistant so that fungal decay, water effects, chemical effects and the adverse effect due to weather don't damage the wood. Teakwood also resists fire, alkali and acid effects. Garden furniture made with aluminium is strong and lasts longer; it needs a proper protective coating to avoid corrosion. Plastic furniture is by nature water proof so it can be left out for the entire year without any adverse weather condition. Wicker furniture is made from stems of best quality palm trees, found in tropical areas across the world. The desired shape and structure is obtained by waive the stems tightly. These days wicker furniture is also made from synthetic resin which increases the life and reduces cost. Plastic molded furniture is rapidly used these days because of its low maintenance and durability.
