Materials + Care
At Nate & Lane, every piece is built with a focus on craftsmanship, longevity, and timeless outdoor living. Our furniture is handcrafted using premium materials selected for their beauty, durability, and ability to withstand the elements.
Premium Hardwoods
We offer our furniture in a selection of carefully chosen hardwoods and exterior-rated materials, including:
- Cypress – Naturally resistant to decay and insects with a warm, character-rich grain.
- Teak – One of the world’s most durable outdoor hardwoods, known for its natural oils and exceptional weather resistance.
- Mahogany – A refined hardwood valued for its rich tone, smooth grain, and lasting stability.
Because wood is a natural material, variations in grain, texture, and color are expected and celebrated as part of the character of each piece.
Outdoor Finishes
Our finishes are designed to enhance the natural beauty of the wood while offering protection against outdoor exposure.
Available finish options may include:
- Natural / Bare Wood
- Professional Sealed Finishes
- Oiled Teak Finishes
- Painted Exterior Finishes
- Custom Sherwin-Williams or Benjamin Moore Colors
Over time, all outdoor wood furniture will naturally weather when exposed to sun, moisture, and changing climates. Regular maintenance will help preserve the original appearance and extend the life of your furniture.
Cushion & Fabric Materials
Our cushions are crafted using high-performance outdoor fabrics, including premium Sunbrella® fabrics designed for outdoor durability and everyday comfort.
These fabrics are:
- Fade resistant
- Mold and mildew resistant
- Easy to clean
- Designed for outdoor exposure
While outdoor fabrics are highly durable, we recommend storing cushions in a dry area or using protective covers during extended periods of harsh weather or non-use.
