What is the difference between poly rattan and rattan?
1 Answer
The difference between poly rattan and rattan is the material. Rattan is a natural material derived from one of a number of vine-like plants, while poly rattan is a man-made polymer designed to resemble rattan. Because it is synthetic, poly rattan is more resistant to the effects of sun exposure and weather. Explore a wide variety of rattan furniture on 1stDibs.
