Rattan cannot be machine woven around a curve, so a chair back is somebody sitting with a former and a bundle of soaked cane for most of a day. The consequence is that no two pieces are identical, that the binding at the joints varies slightly, and that a weave that is perfectly regular is usually a sign of extruded plastic rather than good workmanship.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 1020mm wide by 2050mm long by 2000mm high at the head\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeat or working height: mattress deck at 320mm, which suits a mattress up to 250mm deep\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrame: solid hardwood rails and legs with a sprung slatted base\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeave: hand woven headboard panel, close weave, on a bent rattan hoop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: rattan stained through rather than painted on, so a scuff shows dark cane underneath instead of pale cane through black paint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLoad rating: tested to 300kg distributed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndoor or outdoor: Indoors, or a covered veranda or conservatory that stays dry. Natural rattan is not garden furniture and anyone who tells you otherwise is selling you a chair that will go grey, swell, split and unravel inside two seasons. If you want rattan outdoors you want woven polyethylene, which is a good product honestly described and something we do not sell.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAssembly: Flat packed to keep the delivery sensible, about an hour with the spanner in the box. Frame joints are bolted through steel inserts, and the woven panels arrive already woven onto their frames rather than as something you have to assemble.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: approximately 68.0 kilograms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMattress size: single, 900 by 1900mm, not included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlats: sprung beech, 14 for a single and 28 for a double or larger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentre rail and legs on anything wider than a single\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnder bed clearance: 260mm, which takes a storage box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComes apart into the headboard, footboard, rails and slats for a move\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCanopy frame: bare, and it takes a curtain pole or a linen drape\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat you get\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeadboard, footboard and canopy frame\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSide rails, centre rail and legs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSprung beech slats\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll fittings, a spanner and an allen key\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFelt pads and a care card\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDust it with a soft brush rather than a cloth, because a cloth skates over the weave and a brush gets into it. Two or three times a year wipe it over with a barely damp cloth and let it dry away from a radiator. Rattan does not like being dry any more than it likes being wet, so a piece that lives next to a radiator or in a room with the heating on all winter will benefit from a light mist of water once a month, which sounds like an old wives' tale and is the single most useful thing anyone will tell you about it. If a strand lifts, do not pull it. Damp it, press it back and hold it with masking tape overnight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it works\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the piece people mean by coastal: pale, woven and light enough to move with one hand. It sits happily against white or off white walls and against the greens and warm neutrals that have replaced grey in most houses. In a room with a lot of hard surfaces it does the job that a rug does, which is to take the edge off the echo.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rattan Republic","offers":[{"title":"As woven, clear matt lacquer","offer_id":58674762776957,"sku":"RRP-BED-006-CL","price":1974.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Whitewashed","offer_id":58674762809725,"sku":"RRP-BED-006-WW","price":2049.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black stained","offer_id":58674762842493,"sku":"RRP-BED-006-BK","price":2049.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0957\/1398\/4893\/files\/Single_Four_Poster_Bed_with_a_Woven_Canopy_Frame_in_Black_Stained_Rattan.jpg?v=1789052289","url":"https:\/\/rattanrepublic.com\/products\/single-four-poster-bed-with-a-woven-canopy-frame-in-black-stained-rattan","provider":"Rattan Republic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
