Definition
Half-moon plastic rattan has a rounded visible face and a flatter underside, combining raised visual depth with more contact against the frame.
Application and Frame Fit
Sofa borders, chair arms, frame covers, raised bands, and woven areas that need a rounded face.
| Suitable frames | Rounded or rectangular metal frames where the flatter underside can sit without twisting. |
|---|---|
| Furniture styles | Sculpted wicker, bold borders, thick natural-cane effects, and mixed-profile furniture. |
| Size selection logic | Confirm face width, total thickness, underside shape, and bend direction; nominal width alone does not predict frame fit. |
Buyer Decision Points
Look for twisting, underside gaps, face deformation, whitening, and inconsistent orientation during weaving.
Sample Confirmation Method
Mark the visible face, wrap the tightest corner, and inspect whether the profile rotates or leaves uneven gaps.
FAQ
Is half-moon rattan the same as round rattan?
No. Its flatter underside changes frame contact, orientation, and the way the visible rounded face sits in a woven pattern.
