Rattan armchairs

You're looking for a rattan armchair to furnish a living room, veranda or covered terrace. Rattan armchairs are an aesthetic and functional solution, combining weaving, welcoming seating and natural materials. Depending on use, you'll opt for natural rattan for an authentic look, or synthetic rattan for occasional exposure to humidity. From the outset, consider the dimensions suited to your space and the depth of the seat for lasting comfort.

Natural rattan and wicker provide a warm texture and matte finish that evolves over time. Raw rattan structures present a beautiful visual lightness, ideal for bohemian or Scandinavian interiors. Synthetic rattan, often woven around an aluminum frame, is more resistant to humidity and easier to maintain, making it ideal for sheltered terraces. Choosing the right material means balancing natural patina, weight, maintenance and exposure.

Styles, uses and decorative combinations

In decorating, the rattan armchair adapts to bohemian, cosy and contemporary atmospheres. A deep seat with removable cushions creates an inviting reading corner, while a suspended model imposes a more pronounced visual signature. For a living room, choose generous dimensions and a comfortable seat depth; for a veranda, opt for a more compact structure. Linen or washed cotton cushions provide contrast and comfort, and suit neutral or colored palettes.

Practical care and selection criteria

Maintenance varies according to material: natural rattan requires regular dusting and occasional protection against moisture, while synthetic rattan is easily cleaned with soapy water. Check the quality of the framework and the finish of the weaves to anticipate durability. Two concrete criteria will guide your choice: dimensions (seat height, width and depth) for ergonomics, and exposure compatibility (indoor only or sheltered outdoor use) for longevity.

In short, rattan armchairs come in a range of materials, styles and functions to dress a home with character. Browse our selection to find the right model for your space and maintenance requirements. Maison en vogue offers pieces chosen for their craftsmanship and ability to transform an interior.
