Why Choose Vintage Rattan?

Imagine serving cocktails and appetizers on the patio, showcasing a collection of succulents on a windowsill, or using them as a stylish catch-all on your entryway console. Their 19×13 size makes them perfect for a variety of uses.

“Rattan adds a layer of texture and warmth that you just can’t achieve with other materials,” says interior designer, Amelia Hayes of Hayes House Design. “These vintage pieces, in particular, bring a sense of history and character to a space.”

How to Set Up and Use Your Rattan Serving Trays

Using these trays is as easy as pie. Simply place them on any flat surface and arrange your desired items. For a cohesive look, consider grouping trays of different sizes and shapes together.

1. Choose your location: Decide where you want to showcase your trays.
2. Prepare the surface: Ensure the surface is clean and stable.
3. Arrange your items: Place your drinks, snacks, or decorative items on the tray.
4. Enjoy: Admire your stylish setup!

Caring for Your Vintage Treasures

Maintaining the beauty of your rattan trays is simple.

1. Regular dusting: Use a soft cloth or feather duster to remove dust and debris.
2. Spot cleaning: For spills, wipe immediately with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid excessive moisture.
3. Avoid direct sunlight: Prolonged exposure can fade the rattan’s natural color.
4. Store in a dry place: When not in use, store your trays in a cool, dry location to prevent mildew.

“Proper care can significantly extend the lifespan of your vintage rattan,” advises antique specialist, James Cavendish of Cavendish Collections. “These pieces are investments, and a little TLC goes a long way.”
