Questions About Bamboo Or Rattan Furniture
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 7, 2024
    The difference between rattan and bamboo furniture comes down to materials. Bamboo is a wood-like material derived from perennial grasses in the Bambusoideae subfamily, while rattan is a stiff material made from vines in the Calamoideae subfamily. Generally, bamboo is heavier and less flexible than rattan, making for weightier furniture. Due to its flexibility, rattan can be woven into wicker or used in its raw form to build furniture. On 1stDibs, find a large collection of rattan and bamboo furniture.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    No, bamboo and rattan are not the same. Bamboo is inflexible so it cannot be curved to make different shapes. Alternatively, rattan is flexible and a type of climbing palm. It looks similar to bamboo but it’s more versatile and not as durable. Shop a collection of bamboo furniture from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Wicker is the finished woven product that can be made of either rattan or bamboo. Bamboo is an incredibly solid grass that is difficult to bend while rattan is a vine that’s much easier to manipulate. Shop a collection of wicker furniture from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 26, 2024
    The difference between rattan and bamboo chairs is what they are made of. Rattan comes from a number of vine-like plants and resembles a reed. Derived from grass-like plants in the Bambusoideae subfamily, bamboo is a material more similar to wood. Due to the properties of the materials, rattan chairs tend to be lighter and more flexible than bamboo chairs. On 1stDibs, shop a large selection of rattan and bamboo chairs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 19, 2021

  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Rattan patio furniture is the term for chairs, tables and other furnishings manufactured out of a certain material and intended for display outdoors. Specifically, the pieces feature woven rattan, a type of vine that hardens as it dries. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of antique and vintage patio furniture.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 21, 2024
    The best method for repairing rattan furniture depends on the extent of the damage. Small sections of broken or worn rattan can sometimes be cut away and replaced with new rattan weave. For large areas of damage, the entire piece may need to be recovered. An experienced furniture repair person can assess the extent of the damage and recommend the best approach to repairing and restoring your furniture. On 1stDibs, explore a wide range of rattan furniture.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 8, 2024

    Yes, bamboo furniture is incredibly durable and as long as it’s cared for properly, it can last a long time. In fact, bamboo can be more resistant to damage than hardwoods, making it a popular choice for new or vintage furniture purchases. Shop a collection of Bamboo furniture from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 23, 2024
    To identify bamboo furniture, use a magnifying glass to examine the grain pattern on your piece. Bamboo has a distinct grain consisting of short, straight lines and small nodes running in the same direction across a surface. Whirled or irregular grain patterns typically indicate that a piece is wood, not bamboo. If you wish to learn who produced your furniture, search the item for a maker's mark and then use trusted online resources to identify the manufacturer. Should you need any help with the identification process, consider using the services of a certified appraiser or experienced dealer. On 1stDibs, find a collection of bamboo furniture.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Yes, bamboo furniture can indeed be restored. Repair any mildly broken pieces with some heavy duty wood glue. The exterior can also be refinished by sanding off dirt and grime and repainting the piece. You’ll find a large collection of bamboo items from many of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.

    In terms of collectibility, the best make of Rattan Furniture was Gabriella Crespi with her 'Rising Sun' line. While Paul Frankl's designs are also highly coveted and valuable, Crespi has far greater rarity and mystique with her 'Rising Sun' collection. In addition, Frankl's designs were much more copied over the decades whereas Crespi's rattan line is more unique and therefore valuable to collectors and dealers alike.
  • 1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023
    How long rattan furniture lasts depends on a variety of factors, including where you use and store it, how you care for it and the quality of the manufacturing. Outdoors, rattan furniture usually doesn’t last as long, but indoors, pieces can remain beautiful for many years, especially when wiped clean regularly. Rattan and wicker furniture tend to get a bit of a bad rap, often associated with kitschy 1980s decor or denigrated as something found in the home of a dowdy great aunt. But the long-lasting natural medium, made popular in Great Britain and the United States during the Victorian era, is a master of disguise, able to mingle with a wide range of styles when done the right way. On 1stDibs, shop a range of rattan furniture.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    No, not all rattan furniture can be left outside. Some pieces may fade, warp or develop mold if left unprotected in uncovered outdoor areas. In fact, some rattan furniture needs to only be used indoors. You'll find a variety of rattan furniture on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMarch 3, 2023
    The difference between rattan and cane furniture lies in the materials used. Although rattan and cane come from the same type of vine plant, cane undergoes a stripping process that rattan doesn't. As a result, cane is thinner than rattan. Shop a collection of rattan and cane furniture on 1stDibs.
