Peacock Chair in Natural Rattan

The delicate rustic design of the peacock chair makes it an irreverent and elegant decoration option.
The imposing aesthetic that resembles a royal throne combined with the boho essence of natural Indonesian rattan fiber hand woven by local artisans elevates the value of this rustic furniture for indoors and outdoors. This model of decorative chair, also known as Manila, was popularized in the Victorian Era when the exoticism, resistance and lightness of Asian rattan made it the protagonist of maritime expeditions in Asia with a view to the manufacture of handcrafted furniture.

Originating in prisons in the Philippines and disseminated in Hollywood scenarios in the early 20th century, the rustic peacock chair became a symbol of resistance by the Black Panthers, mainly due to the African essence of the design with an elongated backrest. Awareness of the cultural richness that makes up the history of the model and the production of rattan gave Indonesian artisans fundamental inspiration to create their own chairs that conceptually enhance environments already impacted by their powerful look.

The wefts away from the rattan fiber make the piece more airy, in addition to being easy to clean and resistant to climatic factors such as humidity and high temperatures - properties that make rattan furniture an ideal piece for decorating balconies and outdoor areas without roof.
