Here are two lovely wicker chairs for sale - they may be just what you're looking for if you're after something well-made, full of character and unique details, and still sturdy! There is a gorgeous matching sofa available which I will list separately. 

I bought these chairs and sofa many years ago as a 'project', cleaned them and painted them with red and green accents (this was based on the original colours - although I decided to use slightly different scheme on one of the chairs). The paintwork needs re-doing in places as you can see - especially the feet - or you may want to change the colour accents completely! The fading on the paintwork is more from the chairs having been moved around the house (they are lightweight and easy to carry) rather than actual wear and tear.

I liked the suite so much that I even learned basketry  from a local professional in order to be able to repair the chair borders which were tatty in places. Most of the cane is still in place but you might want to tack in a couple of stray pieces - it's just something that can happen with natural cane. 

The seat cushions are the original ones and the foam inserts are still OK, although I had to discard the original back/side cushions. The chairs just need a large cushion for back support depending on how tall you are! The only problem with having a back cushion is that it might hide the lovely "window" detail at the back of the chair :-)
