Which piece of rattan furniture should you choose for your home?

In the home, rattan furniture blends in with many different decorative styles, worlds and moods. Depending on the combinations you choose, you'll create a totally different atmosphere. Here are a few tips for adopting rattan furniture in your home, whether it's your living room or your child's bedroom.

- Bohemian decor

Bohemian decor is a style that can't be ignored when it comes to rattan. The rattan sofa, table or armchair is a key element of the bohemian style. This type of rattan furniture is no exception to the relaxing, elegant ambience that bohemian style exudes. To harmonise your space, match white, beige or cream-coloured cushions with the seat you've chosen for your child. Add a soft sand-coloured blanket and a more comfortable cushion and you're done. These colours and materials will add relief and make your rattan furniture stand out even more.

- Rustic

Wood, the main element of the rustic style, doesn't leave out rattan in this type of decoration. Rattan will bring that modern, up-to-the-minute effect that classic wood tends to lose in this kind of world. A rattan chair, a rattan bedside table, an armchair with a rattan back, a stool or a rattan wall shelf will be perfect for decorating the room you want.

- Scandinavian design

Scandinavian design is more classic in the shape of its rattan furniture. Well-defined furniture, rectangular or square, in classic colours. In this type of design, it's the cane doors on your rattan furniture that are detailed. These are made from rattan cane, a technique that weaves the rattan together to create a sophisticated, designer look. A piece of furniture with cane doors adds all the charm of wood to a Scandinavian interior. Similarly, when it comes to the drawers of the chest of drawers in your child's bedroom, for example, rattan cane drawers will add a great deal of charm to the room.

- Vintage rattan decoration

Here, we're in a more ornate collection or universe, with rattan furniture with more rounded ends reminiscent of the retro and seventies. Ideal for your child's bedroom with a vintage rattan look, furnish the space with a rattan bed. It will provide all the comfort your child needs. Natural rattan provides a healthy environment for your toddler.

You can also accessorise your different spaces and moods with rattan elements that will liven up your decor.

Suitable for all types of decor, rattan mirrors will add charm and a sense of grandeur to your child's bedroom. Place it in one of the corners of your child's bedroom, and the feeling of a larger space will spread throughout the room.

The rattan wall shelf is also a must-have for any bedroom. There's never enough storage space in a child's bedroom, so an extra shelf never hurts.

Rattan furniture: a healthy choice for your children's bedroom?

Your child's bedroom is where he'll spend most of his time, where he'll sleep, play, work and have fun... so a healthy environment is essential for his healthy development.

Rattan furniture is ideal for your child's bedroom. Made from natural elements, rattan furniture is eco-responsible.

The naturalness of the material means you get a healthy component that is not harmful to your toddler's health. It is not made from any chemical elements and is good and natural from A to Z.

Rattan is also a solid, sturdy material that promises a smooth, reliable, quality support for your child. So you can have no fear of adopting a rattan chair, a rattan bed, a natural rattan armchair, a rattan rocking chair, a rattan coffee table or side tables... etc.

Rattan furniture comes in a range of colours. The classic honey-coloured model with its timeless style is available, as are more designer models with black or grey cane, in which case the furniture will be painted with non-toxic paints.

How can you keep rattan furniture looking as good as new?

Easy to do, children are experts at it. Choose furniture that's easy to care for, to ensure that the products you've chosen last a long time.

That's why rattan furniture is perfect for your children's bedroom. Thanks to its hard-wearing qualities, we can guarantee a long life and quick, easy and effective maintenance of the furniture that makes up your toddler's room.

How do you care for it?

First, dust off your rattan furniture. We recommend cleaning your rattan surface or tray at least once a week, or even more if baby has been acting up. A sponge dampened with slightly soapy water is all you need to give your rattan furniture a fresh look.

For more in-depth maintenance, mix 2 tablespoons per litre of water with warm water and 1 teaspoon of Saint-Marc detergent and your solution is ready. This mixture will once again make your rattan furniture shine.

Take regular care of your rattan furniture and it will be with you and your children for years to come.

A final word of warning about vintage rattan or wicker: beware of furniture bought at second-hand shops, which sometimes does not comply with the new safety standards, for example the height or spacing of the bars for rattan cots or cradles. We can only advise you not to buy this type of product and to shop on our site instead, which offers fast, careful delivery.
