3 ORIENT In the mid-1700s, exotic treks and travels throughout the Orient became quite popular. As travelers began to romanticize and document these unusual and fascinating experiences, the legendary furniture designer Thomas Chippendale began adapting Chinese-inspired creations to English proportions, observing the use of classic lines and timeless designs that became known as the Chinese Chippendale style. Orient takes us back in time to this romantic and historical era, when travel to exotic locales was not particularly easy, yet regarded as a must for socialites and artists seeking discovery and wonderment. Extensively detailed fretwork and latticework define the Chinese pattern that is the dominant characteristic of Chinese Chippendale design. The framework of Orient is uniquely crafted of powder-coated aluminum cast from real bamboo and then formed and recast to create an authentic design aesthetic with a tortoise shell finish.

6 ORIENT DESIGN ELEMENTS Orient's romantic design elements include fret and lattice work found in classic Chinese Chippendale period styling. Framework uniquely crafted from real bamboo cast in aluminum and then formed and recast to create an authentic design aesthetic with a rich, faux tortoise shell finish. Built and finished like quality indoor furniture, but designed and engineered to perform beautifully for full-time outdoor exposure with routine maintenance. Durable, weatherresistant, multistep powder coat finish. Generously proportioned and scaled for the optimum resort-at-home or ultraluxe resort living experience. Century's innovative Driluxe cushions on all seating are constructed of a water-repellent cover surrounding a high-resiliency foam core and wrapped with 100% polyester fiber, which is compliant with CAL 117 flame retardant standards. A superior selection of Sunbrella brand performance fabrics designed by Richard Frinier to complement all collections are woven from 100% solution-dyed, UV stable acrylic fibers that resist fading, deterioration and mildew. Versatile product offerings for indoor or outdoor placement. Travertine tabletops are crafted of a naturally porous sedimentary stone formed over millions of years by pressure exerted on layers of minerals beneath the earth's crust. Holes and crevices are formed by natural erosion from subterranean springs. The luxurious hue of these tabletops was chosen to complement the coloration of each finish in this collection. Travertine stone tops require only occasional cleaning and periodic application of a natural surface sealer.
