10 Easy Pieces: Wicker Sofas

August 21, 2019

Wicker furniture is woven, and while the wicker sofa may owe its origins to ancient Egypt’s finely woven baskets made of rush, its look can be distinctly modern.

Whatever the material—bamboo, cane, rattan, or weather-resistant plastic—a wickerwork sofa has a light, airy look that looks right at home outdoors or in a breezy screened porch. Here are 10 of our favorite wicker sofas for outdoors and in.

From Sika Designs, a three-seater Caroline Sofa made with rattan from Indonesia is suitable for use outdoors or in. It is \197 centimeters long (about 77.5 inches) and is \$\2,3\13.
