Brown Rattan

Brown rattan brings a deep, warm tone to the home, sitting particularly well alongside darker wood furnishings and earthy paint colours. It works in sitting rooms, bedrooms, kitchens and bathrooms where a little extra depth and elegance feels welcome, while the woven texture keeps the overall ambience relaxed and inviting.

A beautiful and timeless colourway, dark brown rattan effortlessly complements any style, from classic to contemporary interiors. Each piece in our collection is hand-woven by rural artisans using traditional craftsmanship, from dark rattan bathroom accessories to serving trays, placemats and storage baskets.

Rooms That Suit Dark Rattan

Dark rattan is particularly at home in rooms with richer colour, deeper woods and more collected layers. Think a dining room with earth-toned walls, a study lined with books or a hallway softened by an old runner. The woven texture adds interest without competing with what is already there, while the deeper brown tone sits comfortably alongside more substantial furniture and finishes.

At the table, we like brown rattan charger plates beneath patterned crockery, where the darker weave gives decorative tableware a calmer foundation. A scalloped placemat over a green marble linen tablecloth is another combination we return to, particularly alongside brass and antique gold accents.

Elsewhere, dark brown rattan works just as naturally in practical pieces, from a waste paper bin beneath a desk to a tall storage basket in a hallway or boot room.

Explore Our Brown Rattan Homewares

Brown rattan brings the same depth and warmth to pieces of very different scales, from small decorative pieces to more substantial storage solutions. In our collection, you’ll find dark rattan bathroom accessories including bins, storage boxes and laundry baskets, along with kitchenware and tableware such as placemats, trays, condiment carriers and an ice bucket.

Each piece is woven by hand from fast-growing rattan by rural artisans, whose skilled work provides an important source of income within their communities. The hand-worked finish gives each design a subtle character of its own.

That balance of usefulness and craftsmanship is central to how we think about rattan. These are pieces that can move between daily rituals, from setting the table to keeping the home organised, and be lived with for years. Explore our organised home edit for considered storage and everyday pieces.

Frequently Asked Questions

If you still have some questions please do feel free to get in touch with us.

Can brown rattan and natural rattan be mixed in one room?

Brown and natural rattan can sit comfortably together, particularly where other natural materials already appear in the room. Their shared woven texture helps the two colourways feel connected, while the difference in tone brings gentle contrast. You might use one shade more prominently and introduce the other through a smaller tray, basket or tabletop piece.

Does brown rattan sit well with oak and other light woods?

Yes. Against pale oak or ash, the deeper brown tone creates a clear but natural contrast. It can work particularly well in lighter rooms where a little more depth feels welcome, while the woven texture keeps the effect relaxed rather than heavy.

What colours pair well with brown rattan?

Brown rattan works particularly well with richer greens, warm neutrals, muted reds and deeper blues, but it can sit just as comfortably against softer shades. We tend to think of it as a grounding colour rather than one that needs to match precisely, which leaves room for pattern, painted furniture and different wood tones around it.

Does brown rattan work in lighter interiors?

It does. In a pale or neutral room, the darker weave introduces depth and definition without feeling too formal. A single brown tray, charger or basket can be enough to bring contrast, while larger pieces can give a lighter space a little more weight.

Is every piece available in brown rattan?

Most of the range is available in brown, although some designs are offered in a more limited choice of colourways. Individual product pages show the available shades for each design.
