Questions About Rattan Or Wicker Chairs
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 7, 2024
    The difference between rattan and wicker is that one is a material, and the other is a crafting technique. Wicker is a method of weaving together thin, slightly rigid elements together. Rattan is one material used to make wicker. It is a slightly flexible, wood-like substance that comes from one of hundreds of species of climbing vines from the Calamoideae subfamily. Artisans also produce wicker out of other materials, such as reeds, bamboo, willow and resin polymers. Explore a wide range of rattan and wicker furniture on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023
    No, resin wicker is not the same as rattan. Rattan is a natural vine that can be woven into wicker to produce baskets, furniture and other pieces. Resin wicker is a synthetic material often used to construct outdoor furniture due to its weather resistant properties. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of rattan pieces.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 30, 2024
    There is no clear-cut answer to the question of what's better when it comes to rattan or wicker. In terms of strength, rattan generally comes out on top. However, the craftsmanship will also impact how long a rattan or wicker piece will last. Some people prefer rattan because it has a more natural appearance, but others prize the more uniform look of woven wicker. Also, rattan furniture tends to be pricier than wicker. On 1stDibs, find a wide range of rattan and wicker furniture.
  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 5, 2024
    No, rattan isn't better than wicker — they're not interchangeable terms. The use of rattan stretches from prehistory to IKEA. To clarify, rattan is not bamboo, which is a rigid, hollow reed. Stalks of rattan are dense, steamable and bendable, which is why it lends itself to curvaceous designs and infinite creative uses in a way bamboo does not. Nor is rattan synonymous with wicker, which is a broader term for woven items — often made of rattan fibers but also of willow, other pliable reeds or even synthetic materials. Wicker and rattan tend to get a bit of a bad rap, but they can actually mingle with a wide range of styles — when done the right way.

    Find vintage rattan chairs, dressers, stools and other furniture for sale 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 ExpertApril 5, 2022
    The difference between rattan and wicker is that rattan is the material whereas wicker is the type of weave. Therefore, a wicker weave can be made using rattan, along with other materials. Shop a collection of wicker and 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.
