Much of the work has been about finding good protection against humidity and temperature changes – wear and tear when the furniture is left outside in different types of weather. A traditional Indonesian crafts method inspired Linn and her colleagues. “You simply put the rattan used to bind the furniture into a pool with muddy river water. Then you add leaves to the water and weigh everything down with rocks. After about six weeks, you pick up the rattan and release the water back into the river. The mud creates a protective layer that makes the rattan weather-resistant,” explains Linn.

Don’t lastAnonymous reviewerHad these for just over 2 years. Kept them covered outdoors and they’re rotten and in in a poor condition. Covered in fungus and unusable. Not built to last and certainly not built to be left outdoors in the UK. Total waste of money.
Great quality and built to lastAnonymous reviewerI absolutely love love these chairs, so contemporary looking and with the cushions they are higher up, when I went to collect from the warehouse they seemed really low but with the cushions they are a nice height. I do have cushions for extra back support especially if sitting for a longer period but my 17 year old daughter and all her friends always gravitate to the conservatory as these chairs are comfortable for them to lounge on and they look cool, our conservatory is quite old and recently got a new glass roof and these chairs along with good planting and modern lamps make the space modern and fresh. I was wondering if I should buy them as are quite pricey but they look expensive and will last for years. Looking forward to also putting them out in the garden when we need extra seats for guests when the weather is nice. So happy I got these.
Great looking Anonymous reviewerPractical and versatile
Not as I hopedAnonymous reviewerI was not able to try so bought on line. When you add the cushions it feels very uncomfy to sit on.
Great designAnonymous reviewerIf bought with the matching set of pillows it makes for a great addition to your patio/garden setup. comfortable and the seating angle is great for reading or snoozing in the sun!

Story
A dip in mud protects the rattan
One problem furniture makers worldwide have struggled with for many years is how to make rattan furniture weather-resistant so it can be left outside for a longer period of time. To get around the problem, one of our development teams turned to traditional Indonesian handicraft methods when they created TVARÖ – rattan furniture for your outdoor space.
Linn Grahl, one of our product engineers, can finally take a breather. “We did over 100 different tests before we found the right rattan and the right method to protect it. It has taken a long time to develop TVARÖ, but it has been worth it,” she says.
A traditional method helped out
Keep more of the material
By also keeping the outer layer on the thicker rattan poles, TVARÖ gets additional protection. “It works like a natural shield, and you can keep the beautiful original colour of the material,” says Linn. As a last step, the artisans apply a layer of water-based lacquer. “All these methods together contribute to TVARÖ lasting longer. And open up for more days in the open air with rattan furniture.”
