Outdoor Swivel Chair – Woven Hyacinth & Linen, Buff Colorway

A swivel chair in woven hyacinth with linen cushioning, in the Buff colorway, a pale warm tan close to the natural color of the dried fiber itself. Water hyacinth is a plant stalk twisted into cord and woven over a frame, and the resulting texture is chunkier and more irregular than cane or rattan.

Hyacinth is a natural fiber, which sets the terms for where this chair lives. It weathers well in dry warmth and poorly in sustained damp, since the twisted stalk absorbs water and takes a long time to give it back. That makes it a covered-porch or sunroom chair rather than an open-patio one. The linen cushioning follows the same rule and should come indoors when the weather turns.

It suits a screened porch, a sunroom, or a sheltered terrace corner where the swivel lets someone turn between a view and the room behind them.
