Routine maintenance makes a big difference. Wipe down surfaces regularly with a damp cloth, and use gentle cleaning agents suitable for your chair's material. Always follow the care instructions provided to maintain finish and durability.
How is the loom made of?
Loom wicker, specifically Lloyd Loom wicker, is made from twisted Kraft paper and steel wire. The paper is twisted into cords, and then woven with steel wire as the weft. This unique combination creates a strong and smooth material that is used together with our teak wood frames.
