I am an artisan from Indonesia, and for many years, my family has been handcrafting rattan furniture by hand. Today, I send our work across the world, and one of my proudest relationships is with Smithers in London.

Rattan furniture has kept its appeal in the States and Europe for generations, offering a blend of style and functionality. If it is used in traditional London flats or outdoor gardens, our Indonesian rattan delivers warmth, texture, and a relaxed charm.

### The Advantages of Indonesian Rattan

One benefit is its easy-to-move nature. Our chairs and sofas are suited for people who like to switch up their spaces. Unlike heavy wood or metal, rattan can be shifted with ease—especially useful in London homes where space is tight.

Another benefit is the visual appeal. Rattan furniture has a organic beauty that fits into many styles—from coastal to urban chic. The woven texture adds depth and interest to every room. With premium rattan furniture, the craftsmanship make it feel exclusive.

Durability is also key. When we craft premium rattan, we treat the material carefully, so with the right care it will last for years. Synthetic rattan, which we also produce, is resistant UV rays and moisture, making it suitable for seasonal use in the UK climate.

### The Challenges

On the flip side, natural rattan is not as resistant to moisture and may warp outdoors. In London’s damp seasons, we advise owners to cover their pieces when not in use.

Maintenance is another drawback. Dust can settle in the weave, so routine cleaning is important. It is not difficult, but sometimes time-consuming, especially with detailed patterns.

Comfort also depends on cushions. Without thick padding, rattan furniture can feel firm for long sitting. Investing in quality cushions is recommended.

Finally, the price. While simple rattan furniture can be budget-friendly, high-end rattan furniture from Indonesia—like the pieces we send to Smithers in London—comes with a premium cost. But that price reflects heritage passed down for generations.

### In Summary

As a maker, I believe rattan furniture offers a stylish and lightweight option for outdoor living. It has design appeal and can last for years. But it requires care. For London buyers, through Smithers, I am proud to bring a piece of Indonesian heritage into their homes.
