LOOM
A TECHNIQUE THAT DATES BACK TO EARLY 1900s
Loom is the name of a unique woven material,
which consists of a twisted Kraft paper that is part-
ly reinforced with steel wire. The production itself
is a very unique process, and can be compared to
weaving big rugs.
Our Loom furniture is similar to our fine, tradi-
tional hand-crafted rattan furniture, it is smooth
to the touch, with no sharp joints in the weave
which can snag clothing, it does not bend, distort
or creak when used and it is remarkably strong and
durable. The frames of all our Loom products are
made in natural rattan.
Actually Loom furniture was the preferred furni-
ture of the restauranteurs, cruise liners and even
zepplines of the 1930’s as this was a new revolu-
tionary way to make wicker furniture. In the 1990’s
this was replaced by synthetic plastic weave, but
today – as all good things- loom is on the return to
once again become a beloved and preferred choice
of furniture.
