Vintage Rattan and Bamboo Chaise Lounge

For just one moment, imagine yourself transported back in time. You are a fortunate passenger on a spectacular steamship journey destined for Europe. As you stroll the promenade of the upper deck, enjoying the warmth of the sun, the view of the turquoise ocean, and the aromatic briny cool breeze, the intense desire to sit back, put your feet up, and enjoy the moment suddenly overcomes you. [caption id="attachment_363" align="aligncenter" width="529" caption="Colonial Era Bamboo Chase with Removable Footrest Adjustable Back"]Colonial Era Bamboo Chase with Removable Footrest Adjustable Back[/caption] Le Barn recreates this moment for you by introducing you to our vintage rattan chaise lounge chair and inviting you to sit down! This beautiful chair is finished in a natural rattan color and is in amazingly first-rate condition for its age. The adjustable back offers three options for comfortable positioning, depending on your specific desire. Whether watching the kids in the pool, reading a magazine or newspaper, or taking a lazy afternoon nap, this sturdy chair provides cozy comfort. Rattan is one of the oldest natural resources on the planet, and is still one of the primary materials used to create sustainable outdoor furniture. As a matter of fact, even now, most café’s in France depend on the virtues of rattan to weather the great outdoors! The long chair frame, legs, and arms are made from sturdy bamboo. The footrest is detachable and the chair’s back folds down to provide easy storage over the winter months. The subtle, elegant curve of the backrest and seat naturally support the contours of your body as you relax in style. This vintage rattan chaise lounge could be the classic accent piece you’ve been looking for to complete your porch, deck, or garden. Perhaps you embrace the country French decorating style and are daring enough to bring this worthy piece inside. Try positioning it in unexpected places in your home for a period of time to see how it fits in with your décor. All you need is a comfortable blanket, a good book, and a glass of wine to complete this perfect picture!
