Adirondack Furniture Buying Guide

Adirondack Furniture

When decorating your lakeside living area, Adirondack furniture can be a great choice. Adirondack furniture is a versatile option – suitable for porch, patio, sun room or poolside.

Originating in the early 20th century in the resorts of New York’s Adirondack mountains, Adirondack chairs are relaxed, rusticly attractive and are perfect for relaxing by the lake. After being ‘discovered’ by visitors to the cabins and lodges found in the Adirondack Mountain region Adirondack chairs became wildly popular and have come to represent relaxation and rest in any environment. The Adirondack spirit soon showed itself in other pieces of Adirondack furniture as well.

There are many types of Adirondack furniture to choose from: Adirondack tables, Adirondack ottomans, Adirondack chairs and more. Each durable piece will provide years of comfortable enjoyment.

Adirondack Furniture Materials

Traditional Adirondack furniture is constructed of either cedar or pine, although some of the upscale manufacturers do build teak and cypress Adirondack furniture. Lately, Adirondack furniture made from recycled plastic has become very popular because it is easy to maintain, looks like wood, and is extremely durable. Additionally, plastic Adirondack furniture is an environmentally conscious choice since a single Adirondack chair keeps about 500 recyclable milk jugs out of the landfill. Wooden Adirondack furniture can still be enjoyed in beautiful choices of teak, cedar, cypress and pine.

Adirondack furniture is available in a variety of types, including the following pieces.

Adirondack Chair

Adirondack chairs are the oldest and best-known piece of Adirondack furniture. The Adirondack chair provides comfortable relaxation at many outdoor recreational areas across the country. They offer a comfortable seating angle, and feature wide arms to rest your plate, glass, or book.

Lake Themed Coasters Varieties

Coasters come in an assortment of styles and designs:

Sandstone Coasters are heavyweight coasters are cut from natural sandstone and are super absorbent.
Stoneware or Ceramic Coasters are made from clay that is kiln-fired to dry and harden. These coasters can be coated with a sealant, or left unfinished, which keeps their natural absorbance.
Fabric Coasters are made with a soft and smooth polyester or a coated paper and a non slip rubber or cork backing.
Cork Coasters are made from the bark of a unique oak tree that grows in the Mediterranean region.
Tumbled Stone Coasters are stone tiles that have been placed into a spinning drum with grit, crushed stones and water. The tiles will lose corners and develop fissures and holes in their surfaces- leaving rustic looking, tumbled tiles.
