Pair of Yellow Balau Hardwood Sun Chair

If you are looking for an inexpensive hardwood chair then this is it. The yellow balau construction of the chair gives it weighty feel while still easy to carry. Additionally the timber is durable and will withstand the light knocks a piece of garden furniture can get. Easy to fold up and put away. The slatted design of the timber area means that if left out in the rain, no pools of water can be formed and it will dry out quickly.

Yellow Balau is a hardwood that is commonly used in the construction of garden furniture as an alternative to the well known teak hardwood. Its main appeal to manufactures is that it is much cheaper than teal. Yellow Balau has a life span of up to 30 years thanks to high density of the timber which gives it good durability. Additionally amongst timbers it has only a small tendency to warp or twist over time. While the timber will stand up to regular continuous sunshine and rain exposure the surface of yellow balau over a period of years will begin to weather to a silvery grey colour. Therefore occasional treatment with a hardwood oil will help to reduce this.
