Rattan furniture is made from the thicker part of a vine. There is no frame because the rattan is closely woven but rattan is better suited for indoor use than wicker. This why most of this type of patio furniture has a combination of wicker and rattan in the construction to make it durable for outdoor areas that have some protection. Some wicker furniture is made on a rattan frame and when covered with soft plump cushions it makes a very comfortable seating area.

The colors of the furniture range from brick red to green or yellow but the traditional white rattan and wicker chair is always popular. You don’t have to stick to the ordinary armchair, because this furniture also includes giant sized couches and lounge chairs.

If you really want to have rattan furniture that you can leave outdoors, you should look for pieces that have been treated with molded resin or plastic coating to preserve them. The more expensive pieces in this line won’t crack or peel, while the cheaper pieces tend to splinter or have stray ends or fibers that might snag your clothes.
