Are rattan chairs worth it?

1 Answer
Are rattan chairs worth it?
Yes, many furniture lovers believe that rattan chairs are worth it. Not only is rattan a visually appealing choice of material for furniture making, but it is also a lightweight, durable material that resists damage due to UV, moisture and fluctuations in temperature. Rattan chairs in mid-century modern, Scandinavian modern and Art Deco styles are especially popular today. However, whether or not it’s worth investing in rattan chairs is totally subjective! At 1stDibs, we believe in buying what you love. Our shopping experience enables discovery and learning, whether you are a seasoned connoisseur or just beginning your collection. Find rattan chairs and other seating on 1stDibs.
