Made from natural plant fibre and derived from over 600+ species of rattan palms native to tropical regions of Africa, Asia and Australia, Rattan furniture is gaining lot of popularity in the interiors these days.
Rattan furniture primarily comes in two types – solid rattan and wicker made from rattan. Solid rattan utilizes the whole peeled cane, which provides strength and rigidity. Wicker refers to the weaving style rather than the material and often uses thin strips of rattan.
The material is carefully processed through boiling and drying before being shaped into handcrafted pieces by skilled artisans. This combination of natural texture and craftsmanship results in unique furniture that fits both indoor and outdoor settings.
