The reed that is used for the rustic rattan furniture and accessories is called slimit. Slimit is a crop that grows on trees in the jungles of Indonesia and is gathered in five to six metre strands during the rainy season. This way of growing and harvesting ensures that rattan is a sustainable responsible choice of material.
Rattan material does not need much maintenance, the beauty of the material increases with the years if you treat it well. We recommend wiping the material with a soft brush or damp cloth with just water.
