Rattan Dining Chairs

You can’t decide where to dine: Indoors is fine, but when the sun’s out, you prefer to serve lunch or even an early dinner out on the patio. Wicker and rattan dining chairs and a table deliver this combination through sturdy, woven construction designed to hold up to a moderate amount of outdoor exposure.

Wicker Versus Rattan

When it comes to dining room and patio furniture, we tend to use rattan and wicker interchangeably. Most times, they apply to the same product, resulting in a woven or cane dining room chair. Yet, this isn’t always the case.

Wicker involves a furniture technique that’s been around for centuries, of weaving stalks or reeds into a sturdy yet lightweight piece of furniture that can be used outdoors. Rattan pertains to the material: A naturally occurring fibrous stalk grown in the world’s tropical regions that’s similar to bamboo but offers more flexibility.

The result makes for a casual, multipurpose dining room chair that’s comfortable for indoors and ready for an afternoon on the patio.
