Here at Design Inspirations, we keep our finger on the pulse of what’s hot in the world of lighting. One look that we’re seeing a lot of these days is the versatile, textured, eye-catching look of rattan. Trendsetters are loving this earthy, natural material because it exudes a kind of “casual elegance” that is “timeless and works in so many situations,” according to interior designer Robert McKinley.
With its touchable texture and relaxed vibes, rattan helps to increase your connection to the natural world, which can boost your mood and help you feel more relaxed in your home. (What’s not to love about that?) It’s also a sustainable material with a fast growing cycle, too!
Do you want to get in touch with the rattan trend? We have lots of great lighting and decor options to help you bring rattan into your home.

Our Favorite Rattan Pendants
Savoy House Selby 5-light pendant: A large, octagon-shaped shade showcases rattan woven in an intricate pattern that catches the eye and is terrifically touchable. The Burnished Brass finish adds a hint of glamour.
Savoy House Marcy 1-light pendant: A basket-like black rattan resin surrounds an orb of clear seeded glass. Together, these elements create touchable, eye-catching texture. This pendant can even be used outdoors!
Savoy House Maya 1-light pendant: We love the on-trend white resin wicker shade here, which creates eye-catching texture. You can use this pendant indoors or outdoors in covered areas!
Savoy House Lanai 1-light pendant: Lanai plays with geometry by combining an orb of glass with a wide bowl-shaped shade of rattan resin. It’s also aptly named because it can be used on a lanai, if you so happen to have one.
Trade Winds Miriam 1-light pendant: Getting the rattan look without spending big bucks is easy with the Miriam collection! Also offered in black rattan with warm brass and white rattan with white finish options.
Trade Winds Winnie 1-light pendant: The lighter-hued look of the rattan on this collection gives me Scandinavian style feelings!
Our Favorite Rattan Chandeliers and Ceiling Lights
Savoy House Longleaf 4-light outdoor chandelier: Rattan style goes to the next level with the boldly curved shade of Longleaf, a hardy chandelier that can be used in the great outdoors – or the great indoors.
Hinkley Luca 7-light chandelier: Luca skillfully combines the organic, textured look of rattan with a geometric shape and a sleek chrome finish. Also offered in black.
Alora Lyla LED ceiling flush mount: The intricate patterning on the rattan shade of this sleek ceiling light catches the eye and the outer trim adds a nice touch of contrast.
Pro tip: one easy way to really spruce up a small room is to swap out a ceiling light for something stylish like Lyla! (If you’re renting, make sure to save the old light so you can swap it back in before you move. Then you can take Lyla with you!)
Crystorama Remy 6-light chandelier: The rows of wrought iron circles on this orb chandelier help to add another dimension of texture and detail!
Quoizel Zen 3-light ceiling light: If you want to bring in a touch of rattan, but have low ceilings, the Zen ceiling light is a perfect choice! You’re sure to get a warm, comfy glow.
Currey & Company Antibes 2-light ceiling light: The Antibes is beautifully woven by artisans using traditional techniques to craft a light that is perfect for today’s stylish homes.
Our Favorite Rattan Sconces, Lamps and Home Decor
Elk Lighting Breezeway 1-light sconce: This sleek sconce has a mellow, laid-back vibe with its white coral finish and rattan-wrapped arm. Breezeway also comes in chandelier, pendant and ceiling light options.
Uttermost Phuvinh 1-light sconce: Get convenient lighting anywhere you need it with Phuvinh, a sconce that can be hard-wired or used as a plug-in sconce. Its arm is adjustable and so is its rattan shade!
Uttermost Kendari Table Lamp: An easy way to try out a new trend is with a lamp or a plug-in light. Kendari has a beautifully textured structure with natural knotted rope wrapped around light rattan and accentuated by Antique Brass finished hardware.
Visual Comfort Studio Mari Table Lamp: This super cute, super fun little lamp is inspired by legendary designer Kate Spade‘s rattan handbags. It’s sure to perk up any space!
Cyan Design Clydesdale large candleholder: The warmth and intrigue of the rattan, plus the warm flicker of the candle within, creates a lovely combination that’s great for brightening up any room. Also available in a small size.
