Wicker furniture is made by weaving materials together to form distinct patterns and designs. Cane, rattan, bamboo are all types of natural material that can be used in this way..

Types of furniture
There are two main categories as far as wicker furniture is concerned. The first variety is the synthetic type and the second is the loom version. In case of synthetic varieties as the name suggests materials such as resin, polyethylene and fiber glass are used. The synthetic versions are usually waterproof and hence can be washed easily, the most common name for this is 'rattan garden furniture'.. These also come with UV coating and do not lose color easily. Hence these are more durable. However, being synthetic in nature these cause damage to the environment. Therefore, for the more eco-friendly users the loom versions are perfect. In these types of wicker furniture only natural materials such as bamboo, rattan and cane are used. These are usually coated with some resin emulsion to result in a water-proof coating.

Added support
Most of the time, you will find synthetic wicker furniture to have frames made of aluminum. This is done to provide more support and durability to the furniture piece. Since these are coated with anti-UV materials these furniture pieces do not fade or get spoilt easily. Many of these are also built to withstand nature's elements such as extreme heat or frost conditions. Special coatings on the surface also help prevent chances of cracks from forming.
