Vintage Rattan Lounge Chair (1970s Coastal Style)

A classic 1970s rattan lounge chair with that unmistakable relaxed coastal feel — light, sculptural, and surprisingly comfortable. The high back, generous arms and sprung cane seat give it the laid-back “Queenslander verandah meets mid-century sunroom” aesthetic that is back in demand with contemporary interiors.

Details

• Hand-formed rattan frame with cane infill

• Elegant arched backrest with strong vertical reed work

• Deep, low seat — designed for lounging rather than dining

• Wrapped joinery typical of quality 1960s–70s production

• Warm honey tone with natural age variation

• Light, strong and easy to move

Condition

Very good vintage condition. Structurally solid with only minor cosmetic wear consistent with age. Cane remains taut and usable — no major breaks or losses noted.

Style Notes

Works beautifully in:

• Coastal / Hamptons interiors

• Mid-century spaces needing warmth

• Boho or eclectic rooms

• Reading corner, sunroom or covered verandah

• Adds texture against concrete, timber or white walls

Approx. Era

Circa 1970s (possibly late 60s). Not a modern import — this is the better-made generation with thicker pole rattan and proper bindings.
