It must be the warmer weather, cocktails on the patio, and dreams of tropical vacations….because we are helplessly falling for what could be considered a seasonal trend (but frankly, we’ll take it any time of the year!). Rattan, a vine-like species of palm similar to bamboo, can be manipulated into the most incredible seemingly organic forms, making it a popular medium for both basket and furniture weaving. Due to its durability and mobility (note– it is very lightweight!) rattan is commonly seen in outdoor spaces. While we are all for a spectacular patio scene, why not share the love and bring it inside?
Try introducing rattan furniture to rooms that feel a little too over-thought, stiff, or need a little touch of bohemia to really give the space some life! Shelby, our Director of Design, and I have chosen our very favorite pieces of rattan furniture for you to try in your own home. I’ll be snatching up a couple of these for our new Havenly-decorated den (more to come on that– stay tuned!):
