What is a rattan material?

Rattan is actually a totally natural material, made from Rattan Canes. It is fast growing and easier to harvest than most trees, so is an ecological alternative to wood.

Most Rattan furniture is made from the skin of the plant, which is peeled of and weaved to form the various pieces of furniture.

The inner core, the bit left over after all that skin peeling, can be separated and worked into wicker, used for the same construction purpose as Rattan, but is sturdier and stronger.

As always, hope this helps
