What's rattan furniture?

Rattan furniture is crafted using rattan vines intertwined to fashion outdoor furniture commonly used during the summer months. It can be manufactured from either natural or synthetic materials.

Natural rattan, derived from plant fibers akin to palm trees, is not universally suited to various weather conditions and has a limited lifespan when exposed to specific elements. Sun exposure can bleach its color. Additionally, if natural rattan becomes saturated by rain, there is a risk of water becoming trapped within the weaves, leading to the growth of mold or mildew.

On the other hand, synthetic polyethylene rattan, often referred to as 'PE rattan,' possesses a similar texture and appearance as natural rattan due to its comparable weaving process. However, it offers greater flexibility as it can be used both indoors and outdoors. PE rattan is designed to be UV resistant, allowing it to endure prolonged exposure to the sun without fading.

5+ Advantages of rattan furniture for modern house

Below, you will find an extended description of the five advantages of rattan furniture for a modern house:

Natural and eco-friendly

One of the critical advantages of garden rattan furniture is its natural and eco-friendly characteristics. Rattan is derived from sustainable and renewable sources, such as vines and palm trees.

How Do You Clean Rattan Furniture?

A reason why people choose to furnish their homes and gardens with rattan furniture is because it is very easy to clean. There are many ways you can go about cleaning rattan furniture. See our tips below for more information.

Regular dusting with a feather duster or soft brush

Regular cleaning of your wicker furniture is essential to keep it looking its best. While deep cleaning may be necessary at times, a light dusting can suffice to remove thin layers of dust and debris.

For quick and effective dusting, a feather duster is a handy tool to have on hand. You can use the feather duster to gently whisk away dust from the surface of each piece of furniture. Be sure to target the feathers into as many gaps and crevices as possible, ensuring a thorough cleaning.

In cases where dust has accumulated more tenaciously, a soft floor brush or even a scrubbing brush can provide a more thorough removal. You should avoid pressing too hard, especially if it is just dust that needs to be removed.

Using a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment

If you have a rattan dining set indoors, dust will inevitably accumulate on the furniture over time, just like with any other furniture in your house. Thankfully, there are effective ways to remove dust from your rattan furniture, ensuring it stays clean and looks its best.

One method for dust removal is to use a vacuum cleaner with a small brush attachment. Begin by taking off any cushions or seat pads from the chairs. Then, you plug in your vacuum cleaner and swap the primary attachment for the small brush attachment. The suction from the vacuum cleaner will effectively remove loose dust and dirt, leaving your furniture made of rattan looking fresh and clean.

If your vacuum cleaner does not have a small brush attachment, do not worry. You can still remove dust with a non-abrasive brush. Look for a soft-bristled brush specifically designed for delicate surfaces.

Using  a mild soap solution for stains or stubborn spots

To initiate the cleaning process for your furniture, prepare a solution by combining one gallon of warm water with three tablespoons of mild dishwashing detergent in a bucket. Ensure that the detergent you choose is gentle to avoid potential damage to the rattan material.

Thoroughly blend the solution to create a lather of bubbles. If you're cleaning natural rattan furniture, it's best to minimize the amount of water used. Instead of dipping your soft cloth directly into the solution, it's recommended to skim some of the bubbles off the top. Next, wipe the solution onto your furniture, making sure to reach between the weaves.

Upon completing the cleaning process, rinse your cloth with clean water and wring it out. Then, thoroughly wipe the furniture again with a clean cloth, ensuring that all suds and residue have been removed. Finally, allow your furniture to air dry in the sunlight.

Avoid harsh cleaning chemicals or abrasive tools

To ensure the proper care of your rattan furniture, it's important to avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or power washers during the cleaning process. These cleaning methods can potentially cause damage to the delicate fibers of the rattan. Instead, it is recommended to opt for gentle, non-abrasive cleaning solutions and methods.

Make a focal point with your pendant light

Creating a focal point with a pendant light is a great way to enhance the aesthetics of your space. Here are several ideas to consider.

Add texture to your bedroom

The use of bedside pendant lights or wall lights has become a popular trend in interior design, embraced by top designers and renovators. By positioning pendant lights on either side of the bed, a symmetrical arrangement can be created, introducing a sense of balance and harmony to the room.

The organic patterns and earthy tones of rattan create a cozy and inviting atmosphere, perfect for creating a relaxing sanctuary.

 Mix it with your existing furniture

Incorporating rattan furniture and home decor into your existing furniture setup allows for endless opportunities to create an eclectic and visually captivating space. One way to achieve this is by combining different furniture pieces, such as pairing a velvet sofa and armchair with rattan chairs, footstools, side tables, and coffee tables.
