  • 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 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 ExpertOctober 30, 2024
    Many furniture lovers feel that Italian furniture is worth it. However, not all furniture made in Italy is of equal quality. Many world-renowned furniture makers, such as Kartell, Venini, Cassina, Natuzzi, Fendi, Vistosi and Fabrio Ltd., are based in the country. Still, smaller companies that produce more economical furniture also call Italy home. As a result, it's important to consider materials and construction methods when selecting furniture for your home. Shop a large collection of Italian furniture on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Rattan furniture is very durable, and some of it is designed to be used as outdoor furniture, but it is not impervious to rain. In fact, rattan furniture can be damaged and even destroyed if it’s not treated for weather. Treating your rattan furniture and protecting it from the elements is the best way to preserve its integrity and keep it in good shape. Shop a collection of rattan furniture from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 14, 2024
    Whether wicker or rattan is better for outdoor furniture depends on whether you're referring to natural or synthetic wicker. Both natural wicker and rattan can become damaged when exposed to the elements. However, experts state that synthetic rattan may be slightly more durable than natural wicker. Synthetic or all-weather wicker made of resin is weather-resistant, so this type of wicker may outlast both natural rattan and wicker. Explore a wide range of outdoor furniture on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMarch 25, 2024
    How long rattan furniture lasts indoors depends on a few factors. Quality craftsmanship will largely determine the lifespan of a particular piece. However, how frequently the furniture gets used and how well you care for and maintain it will also impact its longevity. Generally, rattan furniture can remain in good condition for at least 10 years. Following the manufacturer's care instructions can further help preserve your piece. On 1stDibs, explore a selection of rattan furniture.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2023
    As far as determining whether aluminum or rattan is better for outdoor furniture, one should keep in mind that genuine rattan is not waterproof. If you’re thinking about using rattan outdoor furniture in a patio or garden area and you live in a region that is susceptible to inclement weather, this material will most certainly rot if subjected to prolonged periods of rain or snow. Invest in a durable waterproof cover to protect your rattan outdoor furniture in the rain or, if you are able, store it away. Cast aluminum is a popular choice for outdoor furniture given that it is resistant to rust and it is a durable material. Find a selection of outdoor furniture on 1stDibs.
