It’s no secret that natural, woven textures have been dominating home decor trends in the last few years. My Instagram and Pinterest feeds are absolutely flooded with chairs, baskets, lamps, even art made from plant fibers—and my own home has several of these on display. While some of them are made specifically from material like sisal rope (from a species of agave plant) or seagrass, the most common terms used when referring to these kinds of pieces are: wicker, rattan, and cane.
These three terms are often used interchangeably, so you wouldn’t be alone if you thought they were the same. But they aren't. It can be particularly confusing to parse out the differences, especially when confronted with the slew of mislabeled items on the market, but we’re here to help. Below, we outline the major differences, and highlight some of our favorite examples of each.
