Spreader Hammock and Wooden Arc Stand Package

Wooden Arc Hammock Stand

Package Dimensions: 2 Boxes - L198cm x W47cm x H7cm. Box 1 - 16kg, Box 2 - 15kg.

Spreader Bar Hammock

Suitable for one or two persons. A quality hammock for those that prefer a more open feel. Woven from Mexican extra thick cotton or polyester cord for added durability, softness and assured comfort and relaxation along. Light coloured spreader bars with attractive side fringing (removable).

This hammock stand has been treated with a wood preservative and all metal parts are stainless steel for greater durability.

To prolong and enjoy your stand for many years to come we recommend when possible keeping the stand undercover. If you do intend to leave the hammock in the elements we recommend regularly oiling (every 6-12 months) to further preserve the timber. Disassemble and lightly sand each section first with fine sandpaper to remove any dirt and allow the oil to adhere better and then apply 1-2 coats of quality outdoor furniture or marine grade oil. 

If placing your stand directly onto grass, we recommend placing the feet on concrete pavers to protect them from ground moisture.

Over winter while your stand is less likely to be in use we recommend storing indoors to prevent unnecessary weathering.

This stand is made from sustainably harvested and certified Scandinavian spruce. The original colour may fade naturally as the wood matures.   

Checking: Small cracks running along the grain of the wood is a natural process of the timber as it expands and contracts due to changes in temperature and moisture and should not be of concern. This stand is made to the same high standards as laminated construction beams in Europe through a machine pressure lamination process and this checking will not affect the structural integrity of the stand.

Bleeding: As the wood warms in the sun you may also notice some small areas where resin (like thick honey) seeps out of particular spots in the timber. This will stop over time and can be wiped or snapped off as it cools back down. 

The Mexican Hammock Store is the exclusive NZ stockist and distributor of Cielo Mexican Hammocks the only hammock in the world from a Fair Trade Federation Member and B Corporation company.

All our hammocks are 100% handmade by expert artisan hammock weavers in Mayan villages throughout the Yucatán, Mexico. Through hammock weaving, sustainable employment opportunities are created, whilst helping to keep alive the local Mayan community traditions.

Each hammock purchase helps contribute to growing 'Fundacion Cielo' a registered non-profit organisation working within these communities where there is often economic disparity and lack of employment opportunities to help drive social change, through alleviating poverty, improving health, education and promoting gender equality.

Hammock Stand

Hammock

Cotton: 80/20 - Cotton/Nylon. Our range of Mexican hammocks are made from cotton (the body) and nylon cord (the suspension arms) for the best in hammock comfort and strength.

Cotton corded hammocks have a very soft supportive feel as they stretch and shape perfectly to your body shape. The nylon suspension arms provide greater strength and durability. 

Hammock Stand: We have tried to accurately display the actual wood colouring of the stand, but due to variations in wood colouring, lighting, and screen displays, the exact colour may vary slightly from what you see on your screen.

Cotton Hammocks: Available in the colours displayed. Simply select your colour preference by clicking on the applicable button prior to adding to cart.

As each hammock is individually hand-woven care is taken to ensure accurate replicas of each image is created, but due to the intricate detailing slight variations will occur from the exact images displayed. Due to variations in lighting and screen displays, the exact hammock material colour may also vary slightly from what you see on your screen.

Multicolour is where we leave it up to the hammock weaver to create their own unique coloured hammock. Using 4-6 colours each hammock is different in colour and pattern. As such the displayed images are indicative only and a randomly coloured hammock in the beautiful vibrant colours of Mexico will be selected for you.

Black colour hammocks, in general, can be more prone to fading. By reducing prolonged exposure to sunlight this can help keep your hammock looking good for longer.
