Modern European designers concluded that wicker furniture creates in your house, apartment or office a sense of unsurpassed comfort and warmth. But such furniture should be made not only from straw or willow, other materials should be present in it: stone, glass, metal or wood. The invention of European design masters turned out to be not only very fashionable, but also very practical, because in the summer wicker furniture can perfectly accommodate in the country, and in winter it will fit perfectly into the interior of any apartment.
Wicker furniture is very light and unpretentious. If wicker furniture is made efficiently, and subsequently carefully care for it, then it will last many decades.
As a rule, tables and chairs weaves from willow. The better the rods for subsequent weaving were soaked and then processed with special impregnations, the longer such furniture will serve. There are many cases when the seats made to order were transmitted from one generation to another.
Furniture weaving is also made of paper twine, saturated with a moisture -insulating composition with special components that prevent decay and protect furniture from rain. After that, the material for weaving is impregnated with special varnish, which does not allow the villusness of the rope – this reduces the wear of the furniture and the product becomes pleasant to the touch.
In the manufacture, as a rule, two weaving options are used: macram and basket weaving. Depending on what weaving was applied, the appearance of the product depends. To make it clear, traditional Russian rocking chairs were made and manufactured mainly by basket weaving, and the rattan chairs and sofas are made by macrame.
A wicker chair today does not have to have a basis from willow or rattan rods. Many manufacturers, in an effort to increase the strength of their products, make a metallic basis of chairs, chairs or tables, and then braid them already with rods or rope – synthetic or linen.
In a hundred percent of cases, wicker furniture (or wicker furniture elements) is performed manually. Because of this, wicker furniture often has a fairly high price. But this price is justified – the coziness that gives any interior wicker furniture is worth. If you are going to someone for a housewarming line, or you were invited to a wedding, choose wicker furniture as a gift. The present is guaranteed to impress, and you only have to buy flowers in Medvedkovo (or in any other area) as an addition to a gift.
