Original wicker furniture is always in trend. The most popular and fashionable attributes are a white rattan sofa, an armchair and a chaise lounge.

Wickerwork manufacturing technology

For the manufacture of wicker sofas and other furniture attributes, durable and flexible palm creepers that have undergone special processing are used. Vines up to 300 meters long are found in nature, while the diameter in large areas (up to 4 meters) remains the same. The color of the working lashes (natural and artificial) can be very different. Natural material is painted in four primary colors: coffee, honey, cognac and olive. White lashes are obtained by bleaching, and such furniture is classified as refined and exclusive.

Each product has a basis - it can be a thick vine, a wooden frame or an aluminum profile. To braid the recesses and holes, thin lashes of different diameters are used, through which:

• large and small mesh;
• dense and openwork weaving with simple and complex patterns.

The maximum weight per seat is more than 300 kg, and this despite the fact that the rattan sofa in appearance does not have impressive parameters, but seems light.
