Key Features
- Premium Natural Teak Frame: Sustainably sourced natural teak construction from controlled plantation forests delivers exceptional structural durability, natural UV radiation resistance, chlorine and seawater resistance, and a distinctive organic warmth that develops a distinguished silver-grey patina over time — establishing the Yiko Lounge Chair as an enduring outdoor lounge seating investment of rare material quality and lasting Belgian design presence.
- Recycled Twisted Chalk Wicker Seat & Back: Eco-friendly hand-woven seat and back crafted from recycled two-tone wicker in the signature Twisted Chalk finish — combining sustainable material responsibility with exceptional tactile comfort, organic visual warmth, and the distinctive nostalgic wicker character that defines the Yiko collection's unique Japanese-inspired outdoor lounge aesthetic of artisanal Belgian craftsmanship.
- Knock-Down Design: Intelligent knock-down backrest construction facilitates simplified flat-pack shipping, compact off-season storage, and effortless on-site assembly without compromising structural integrity, finish quality, or design excellence — reducing logistics costs while ensuring consistent premium quality upon delivery and reassembly across all residential and commercial outdoor settings.

Cushion Styles
