Oxford Garden Orso Resin Wicker Side Chair
Oxford Garden Orso Resin Wicker Side Chair
Orso Collection
Orso Side Chair
The armless version of the Orso dining chair, two inches narrower and a pound lighter. Losing the arms is what lets you push it all the way in and fit six around a table sized for four. Same hand woven bucket, same stacking aluminum frame.
- 21 inches wide, so more of them fit. Two inches narrower than the Orso armchair. On a 72 inch table that difference is the gap between seating six and crowding six.
- Pushes fully under the table. With no arms to catch on the apron the chair tucks in flush, which matters on a deck where the walking lane behind it is tight.
- Hand woven resin wicker seat. Woven over the aluminum seat form, in Sand weave code W.D or Shadow weave code W.O, at the same price either way.
- Stacks and arrives assembled. Nothing to build, and the set stores in a single column.

Materials and Construction
Frame. Marine grade aluminum, powder coated. Aluminum does not rust, so the frame does not depend on a coating staying perfect to survive, and it stays light enough that one person can move the piece without help. The powder coat is baked on rather than sprayed, which is why it holds at the joints where outdoor furniture usually fails first.
Weave. All weather resin wicker, hand woven over the aluminum seat form. Oxford Garden weaves Orso in two colorways, Sand (weave code W.D) and Shadow (weave code W.O). The strand is synthetic and colored the whole way through rather than surface dyed, so it does not absorb water, go brittle in sun or show a pale core where it gets scuffed.
Feet. Leg end caps are fitted at the factory so the frame does not mark decking, tile or stone when it is slid rather than lifted.
What Is Included
- One Orso Side Chair, hand woven resin wicker over a powder coated aluminum frame, fully assembled
The 2026 price list does not print a cushion under this item code. The chair is sold as the woven frame.
Weave Colorways
The 2026 price list prints the woven Orso pieces as a single item code with the weave color left open, so both colorways sell at the same price.
| Colorway | Weave code | What it looks like |
|---|---|---|
| Sand | W.D | A warm, light neutral. The colorway Oxford Garden photographs most of the collection in. |
| Shadow | W.O | A deep charcoal toned weave that reads almost black at a distance. |

Care and Maintenance
Resin wicker. Hose it off, then work mild soap and lukewarm water into the weave with a soft brush and rinse. Grit trapped between strands is what wears a weave, not weather.
Powder coated aluminum. Wash with mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive pads and solvent cleaners, which dull the finish. Touch up a deep scratch promptly so salt and grit have nothing to work at.
Off season. The powder coated aluminum frame can stay outside all year.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many fit around a table compared with the armchair?
The side chair is 21 inches wide against the armchair's 23, and it has no arms to collide with a neighboring chair. On a long rectangular table that usually means one extra seat per side without anyone feeling squeezed.
Can I mix side chairs and armchairs?
That is the usual way Orso is bought. Armchairs at the two ends of the table, side chairs down the sides. Both sit at 17.5 inches and share the same weave and frame, so the group reads as one set.
Which weave color will I get?
Sand and Shadow are both available at the same price, because the price list prints one item code with the weave position left open. Tell us which you want at order time and we will confirm it on your acknowledgment.
Is the wicker natural rattan?
No. It is a synthetic strand colored the whole way through before weaving, so sun does not bleach it and rain does not make it brittle. Natural cane left outdoors does both within a season or two.
Do I need to assemble it?
No. It arrives fully assembled, with no hardware and no instruction sheet. Take it out of the carton, remove the packaging and set it down.
Can it stay outside through winter?
Yes. The aluminum frame does not rust and the weave does not absorb water. Stacking the chairs under cover simply keeps grit and leaf litter out of the weave, which is the only thing that actually wears a woven seat.
How is it delivered?
By LTL freight to the curb with lift gate service. The carton is 30 by 24 by 42 inches, beyond what parcel carriers accept, so the carrier will contact you to arrange a delivery window.
What else is in the Orso collection?
A woven armchair, side chair, bar chair and club chair, plus sling versions of the armchair, side chair and bar chair. The sling chairs share the frame family but the price list gives them their own item codes, so they are bought as their own piece rather than as a fabric choice on a woven one.
