Interesting Fact – Rattan furniture can have its origins traced back to Ancient Egypt. We actually have ancient tombs to thank for this, as wicker furniture was discovered buried alongside Egyptian Pharaohs. However, we do not get the name from some ancient source. Instead, the term ‘wicker’ is actually from languages in Scandinavia. It is believed to come from two words. First, there is ‘wika’ which translates roughly as ‘to bend’ alongside the word ‘vikker’ which translates as ‘willow’.
Since its origins back in Egypt, wicker furniture saw its popularity move throughout the ancient world, including the Romans and across the civilizations of the Ancient Near East.
That popularity has never really waned since the 19th century. With the rise of synthetic wicker and rattan in the 2000s, it is now as popular as ever thanks to the option of having wicker furniture outdoors.
Our Rattan Sofa, Chairs & Coffee Table Hire comprises of a double rattan sofa, 2 x arm chairs and a coffee table.
