Weave magic: the best woven designs for the home
Let us introduce you to the new interior must-have: vibrantly coloured woven furniture, lighting and accessories
Spring brings with it the desire for a bold, energetic update. These woven designs feature brilliant shade combinations using natural and synthetic threads, transporting you to the warmer climes of sunny Latin America, a region with a long and rich history of embroidery, and where many of these pieces have been handmade by textile artisans and young, independent studios.
‘Clown’ chair, Chuch Estudio
Petatillo is a traditional Mexican technique often used in ceramics to create decorative lattice-like patterns. Here, it has been applied to the nylon seat of this chair to create a colourful focal point. £1,178, 1stdibs.com
‘Wonderland’ light, Mingyu Xu Studio
Mingyu Xu’s series of colourful lighting and accessories, ‘Wonderland’ was originally created for a Dolce & Gabbana exhibition at Milan design week. The hero is this pendant, which combines Chinese bamboo weaving and Sicilian glass techniques to create an eye-catching piece. Price on application, mingyuxudesign.com
‘Amazonia’ placemat, CasaLatina
Each of these ‘Amazonia’ placemats have been handmade from wicker in Columbia by CasaLatina. Though they also come in a plain beige, we think the warm yellows and reds bring a dynamic sensibility to the table . £200 for four, abask.com
‘My Beautiful Mirror’, Mama Shelter
In the market for a mirror with bags of character? Internationally acclaimed lifestyle hotel Mama Shelter’s raffia-framed mirror is guaranteed to attract attention. £120, laredoute.co.uk

‘Woven Nest’ vase, Loewe
Galicia-based textile artisan Idoia Cuesta’s work celebrates the artistry and heritage of weaving. The long time Loewe collaborator’s new ‘Knot’ vase in this sky blue is the perfect sunny update for a tired shelf. £795, loewe.com
‘Rattan’ table lamp, HK Living
Rattan often gets a bad rap, but this table lamp proves that, when it’s bright and used to create an on-trend mushroom shape, it can be quite the contemporary material. £100, hkliving.com
‘Abelha’ basket, Maison Pichon Uzès
The oxblood colour trend shows no signs of abating, so if you haven’t already, hop on it with the ‘Abelha’ fruit basket in ‘Bordeaux’. Approx £365, maisonpichonuzes.com
