➤ The sustainable material: Rattan

This rapidly renewable raw material is obtained from rattan palms, which grow as climbing plants in the tropical forests of Indonesia. Their branches and trunks are harvested by hand without damaging the surrounding trees and then dried. The inside of the branches and trunks is used in various thicknesses for furniture, baskets or lamps, while the bark is cut into strips and used for filigree wickerwork, such as the well-known ‘Viennese weave’. As rattan palms need an intact ecosystem to grow, rattan processing is an incentive for the local population to preserve healthy, natural forests.
