Rattan Furniture is making a comeback and is no longer resigned to just outdoor furniture but has earned its rightful place in our homes. How has it quickly found itself to be one of the stylish trends in homes and outdoor spaces across the world? Why is it so popular? Grab a seat and a drink as we dive into the deep.
WHAT IS RAFFIA?
Derived from a climbing vine-like palm plant, rattan is a natural material used to make furniture, baskets, and other home accents. This durable yet flexible product can be bent or woven into a wide variety of shapes and patterns. Each freshly cut strand of the raffia is usually stripped and sun-dried. The raffia strands are then brought into warehouses to be sorted and separated into different qualities of raffia, according to their texture, color, width, and fiber length.

USING RAFFIA IN YOUR OUTDOOR AND INDOOR SPACE
Although commonly used on patios due to its weather resistance, rattan isn’t limited to just outdoor spaces. Whether on furniture, lighting, or tabletop accessories, the tropical material can bring lush texture to any room. Rattan suits all sorts of styles, including living room chairs, coffee tables, and can be easily painted for a contemporary look.
Durable and widely available, Rattan furniture is generally less expensive and long-lasting than every other piece of furniture, making it ideal for high-quality affordable furniture. Rattan has a calm, homely feel which is perfect for living spaces where comfort and convenience are key. It also blends with a wide range of design styles like seat and back cushions, and throw pillows in various prints.
Just like wood, rattan can also be stained or painted in nearly any shade. A fresh coat of color can instantly modernize rattan furniture, giving inexpensive items or secondhand finds a new look. Spray-paint rattan furnishings with a bold, splashy color, or opt for classic white for a traditional look. Our Malibu chairs, for example, play up the room’s open feel and contrast a sleek contemporary dining table.
