This is the new side of ‘wicker’, and it’s probably not what you have imagined…
…two comfortable arm chairs on the back deck, an Ernest Hemingway novel, a cosy rug and a cool drink. Well, that’s a gorgeous image, but wicker is serving other needs as well.
Wicker, while still perfectly in place on a veranda, is now filling stylish homes in living rooms, outdoor areas, sunrooms – in fact, any room in the home. It works superbly in our sunny country, as it has such a fresh, crisp, summer-all-round look.
Today’s modern wicker furniture is very often a hand-woven synthetic that can withstand our weather conditions. While we think of wicker as outdoor furniture, it’s just as amazing indoors as well.
It’s time to have a new look, not just at the variety of weaves and finishes, but the way quality modern wicker is made now, so that it’s a smooth and snag-free story.
Wicker looks so good against timber. It’s a thoroughly organic, natural, Australian look. There are fabulous pendants and lanterns that also are designed with weave as their texture to complement the look.
Macrame, matting and loose woven throws complete the look.
