About the Item

The Art Deco "president" stick reed rattan fan back living room set featuring a 3 seater sofa and 2 seat settee with matching glass top coffee table and side table. Both sofas have a distinctive fan-back form and an hourglass silhouette crafted from natural rattan with intricate reed rattan detailing and soft cushion top seats. The coffee and side table both feature a spindle design with woven "X" sides and green glass tempered tops. The "President" style was made famous after Franklin D. Roosevelt's use of reed rattan furniture aboard his presidential yacht the USS Potomac beginning in the late 1930s. The set is a great mix of early modern design with a casual tropical vibe. Perfect for enhancing any living space with warmth and sophisticated design elements. -Dimensions- 2 Seat Sofa: 35" height x 60" width x 36" depth x 18.5" seat height 3 Seat Sofa: 35" height x 84" width x 36" depth x 18.5" seat height Long Coffee Table: 16.5" height x 48.5" width x 25.5" depth Square Coffee Table: 21" height x 27" width x 22" depth United States, 1930 We only purchase and sell only the best and finest rattan furniture made by the best and most well-known American designers and manufacturers including: Ritts Company.(Herb Sr. and Shirley Ritts) Tropitan Seven Seas Rattan Paul Frankl Tropical Sun Rattan These designers and companies helped to popularize rattan furniture in the United States during the 1930s through the 1960s. Shirley Ritts was the mother of photographer and music video director Herb Ritts Jr. Shirley Ritts was born in Baltimore, Maryland on October 28, 1920. Herb Ritts Sr. also invented the "S springs" under the cushions in the early 50s and replaced the wrapping with preformed plastic. Paul Frankl came from New York just before the Depression after a great run designing his renowned Skyscraper furniture line. He designed and decorated the homes of Hollywood’s top stars and producers from his Beverly Hills shop.

László built his reputation while designing interiors for houses in the 1950s to 60s, Including rattan furniture in his style. C.W. Fishbeck started Tropical Sun Rattan of Pasadena in 1905. Tropical Sun produced top quality real rattan furniture in the Philippines where most of the above designers also had their designs made. He had showrooms across the country. We have in stock at this time a vast array of rattan from all of these designers, decorators, and architects; their sofas, chairs, and tables, just about all their designed products from the 40s through the '60s. All rattan, bamboo, and wicker furniture has been painstakingly refurbished to the highest standards with the best materials. Rattan workers do all refinishing with over 30 years of experience. Every wrapping and joint has been inspected by “The Rattan Man” Harvey Schwartz to guarantee you the finest product available and enjoy for years in your home or office.
