Summer’s Favorite Material Has Found Its Way to the Table – Shop 24 Rattan Table Decor Picks To Bring Tasteful Texture to Your Next Dinner Party
From rattan-wrapped serving forks to rattan-woven centerpieces, this timelessly textural material is turning summer tablescapes into stylized scenes
If summer were a material, it would be rattan. Lightweight, effortlessly woven, and naturally elegant, rattan is a sure signal of the sunshine season, creating a relaxed aesthetic in any room in which it's placed.
Though we often see rattan take the form of home decor like baskets, lampshades, or coffee table trays, it's gearing up to be one of the top summer table decor trends of 2026. Think rattan-wrapped serving bowls, utensils with rattan handles, and even rattan-clad salt and pepper shakers. This textural material brings depth to summer tablescapes, creating a scene that looks refreshingly elegant, dynamic, and distinct.
Part of rattan's allure is its uniqueness – because of the intricacies of its weave, no two rattan pieces look the same. From Williams Sonoma's tightly woven serving bowl to Magnolia's loosely braided rattan utensil holder, this material's varied look can help you create a one-of-a-kind, layered table setting every time you host. Below, shop a chic array of rattan table decor to get you started.
