5 Rattan Finds a Home Stager Would Pick Every Time for Every Budget (Starting at $40!)
When you think about it, a lot of our furniture comes from plants. Anything wooden was once a tree, obviously, but there are plenty of other offerings from Mother Nature. One of those plant powerhouses? Rattan. You may only know it as the type of furniture common in farmhouse or boho styles that looks like it’s made from woven sticks or rope, but the word rattan originally refers to a type of climbing palm plant that grows in tropical areas. And it’s become a favorite of homeowners and stagers everywhere for its instant ability to make every space look boho-chic.
Though not every piece of rattan furniture is made from plants these days (some are synthetic rattan, which tends to last longer and is easier to clean), the rattan trend shows no sign of slowing down. To help sort through the jungle of options out there, I spoke to home stager Tiffany Fasone of Voila Design Home, which operates in Philadelphia, New York City, and the Hamptons to get her list of rattan faves.
