Finnish Rattan Coat Hanger
£12.00
Ex Tax: £10.00
A heat formed and bound rattan cane hanger from Finland, hand produced by the crafts people of a Vaanta based visually impaired workers co-operative. Rattan is a kind of climbing palm or vine the cultivation of which is being encouraged by some conservationists as a means of preserving the forest growth on which it thrives. Obviously the commercialisation of any old growth forest is to varying degrees problematic, but rattan is being utilised as a means to prevent the far more devastating logging that would otherwise occur. Approximately 56cm by 24cm.
Care Advice
When not in use, store in a dry environment. Treat with a beeswax furniture polish or mineral oil conditioner to keep the wood from drying out and prevent warping or splitting.
