By now, we’re all fairly well-acquainted with the enduring interiors trend that is the rattan chair. The key to any successful social media post; this home decor centrepiece has proven time and time again that just like bouclé, it doesn’t plan on going anywhere. As self-proclaimed fans of this furniture style, (you simply need to look to the RUSSH Instagram feed for evidence), we’re constantly on the hunt for the best rattan chairs to add to our wishlist.
The rattan chair as we know it today was developed by Le Corbusier in 1920s. Since that time, the style has firmly reserved its place as an icon, adapting and elevating any interior design. But as with most trends, finding unique iterations that help your home stand apart can be a challenge. There’s nothing worse than walking into the home of a friend to discover you’ve both sourced the same piece of furniture. The reality is, cane and rattan furniture pieces are not new; we’ve seen this trend fit into almost any design style – boho, coastal, Scandi, vintage. But the latest offering, the one we’re particularly fawning over, is more refined than ever.
For continual inspiration, we’re returning constantly to some Instagram favourites to set our mood-board tone. For archival and vintage moments for the heart and mind, @chair.only serves one-of-a-kind imagery; but for inspiration in the here and now, interior digital mood board @white_sage is our holy grail.
Here, however, we’re going one step further and sharing our ultimate wishlist comprised of the best rattan chairs ready for your perusal (and purchase). From desirable dining chairs to single pieces that will transform any room.
