Why Rattan Furniture Is So Popular(Ⅰ)

When it comes to outdoor furniture, there are plenty of options to suit every taste. However, no other option seems to have gained as much popularity lately as rattan furniture. Rattan outdoor furniture has quickly become one of the hottest trends in outdoor decor and design, and you don’t have to look far to see it grace your garden and outdoor spaces.

What is rattan furniture?

Rattan furniture is outdoor furniture made of vines woven from vines, usually used in summer. Rattan can be natural or synthetic.

Natural rattan, derived from plant fibers associated with palm trees, is not weather-friendly and will not last long if exposed to certain conditions. It can be bleached by the sun, which can affect the color. If natural rattan gets wet with rain, water can become trapped in the weave, causing mold or mildew.

Synthetic polyethylene rattan, also known as “PE rattan,” on the other hand, looks and feels the same way as man-made fibers are woven, but is more flexible and suitable for indoor and outdoor placement. Its anti-UV immunity withstands intense UV exposure without fading.

Why is rattan furniture so popular?

1. Rattan is stylish

Rattan furniture is so popular mainly because of its appearance. The classic woven rattan texture is instantly recognizable, highly refined, and guaranteed to look trendy for years to come. A perfect blend of country chic and modern minimalism, this design effortlessly adds a touch of elegance to any garden or outdoor space. Many rattan furniture sets come with comfortable cushions that can be customized if you want to use fabrics in different colors. Rattan furniture comes in different colors, from gray to brown and black, so you can find a furniture set that matches the rest of your garden decor.

2. The rattan is strong

Rattan is known for being strong and durable, but the quality of the synthetic version will depend on the type of material used and where it was purchased. Cheaper synthetic rattan will be weaker than quality investment brand rattan.

3. Rattan is very light

Rattan furniture is not as heavy as wooden furniture and is easier to move. While it’s lighter, that doesn’t mean it’s any weaker than hardwood furniture. Unlike hardwood furniture that is difficult to move, you can easily move it around your back garden by experimenting with placing rattan.
