Rattan, once upbraided for its ubiquity in coastal interiors and reserved only for the ocean-dwelling, is now the material of the moment and taking the interiors world by storm – and no one does rattan decor and furniture quite as well as the beloved British brand Neptune.
If this is your first foray into rattan decor, and you're looking for tasteful rattan decorating ideas, the key lies in prioritizing quality over quantity. Clearly, you don't need me to rhapsodize about rattan's alluring textural appeal, but it's worth noting that a room with even just one rattan detail takes on a whole new textural dimension, and it can massively enhance the look and feel of a space.

The most gorgeous petite wall light, sitting on an aged brass backplate and slender stem. Use it in a pair, either side of a bed, across from each other in a living room, or in a hallway, either side of a large mirror.
A natural willow planter suitable for using inside or out, including a chrome-coated zinc liner to plant into (drilled with drainage holes), obscenely handsome flanking a front door and filled with two tall, stately bay trees.
This beautifully made basket is a very generous size so it will house stacks of logs for the wood burner, ad it is incredibly sturdy so you can carry in massed of logs without struggling.
If you have a table lamp and you're looking for a simple, unpatterned shade, instead of a simple cream shade, make it this wonderful creation. The honey-rich colour really does cast the most beautiful golden light.
An unusual scallop-edged chandelier suspended from an antique brass chain and has four large opal globe bulb covers for a soft, upwards glow - perfect for hanging over a seating area, dining table or staircase.
Selecting bar stools is no mean feat. This one is beautifully made, traditionally crafted using mortise and tenon joints and a rattan webbed seat becomes more and more comfortable as the years roll by.
A contemporary, beautiful, hard wearing cutlery tray that takes the best rattan traditions and brings them up to date with crisp, modern design.
This is an achingly beautiful use of rattan. Use it to illuminate hallways and living areas or on either side of your bed.
Handwoven by skilled artisans in Asia and finished with a water-based enamel paint, no two versions of this bowl are the same.
Many of us think of rattan as one of those materials that is often situated at the subtle transition between exterior and interiors, often seen in gardens, conservatories, garden rooms, summerhouses and now more frequently, indoors too. And whilst Neptune has some of the most superb all-weather rattan garden furniture worth adding to your wish list for next summer, their cosy, autumnal, honey-hued interior picks are where I would choose to invest in this versatile and pleasingly tactile material.
