How to Take Care of Rattan Products

- Rattan furniture usually has a lot of nooks and crannies where dirt and dust can accumulate. So, dust or vacuum it weekly. Perform damp cleaning monthly and wipe any spill immediately.
- Check your rattan for any damage or mildew growth at least once a year, especially those pieces that have been left outdoors.
