Danish label Sika-Horsnaes a/s is a merger between the two eldest rattan furniture manufactures in Scandinavia SIKA MØBLER A/S, established in 1950, and HORSNÆS DESIGN A/S established in 1940. Both have been specialised in production and distribution of rattan- and wicker furniture ever since, and until 1992 also with their own production plans in Denmark.
I can easily imagine how perfectly these chairs would fit in our own interior, but also for outside-living on a terrace. The rattan furniture is becoming popular again, since it was out of sight quite a while. The black variants are really nice in combination with some ethnic accessories, as for example the new Africa inspired prints ´Vilmie´ at Ikea...

Beautiful block-print textiles with bright colours are the showpieces of Danish brand Bungalow.
´For thousands of years, craftsmen of India have been making decorative block-printed cottons, enchanting and inspiring others around the world.
Skilled craftsmen stamp the cloth using carved wooden blocks to imprint the designs unto the fabric. Depending on the number of colours and the inticracy of the designs the printer hand stamps the cloth 500-2000 times to complete a set of bedlinen.
The art of block-printing is passed down from generation to generation and to achieve the highest quality we are working with some of the best block-printers in India.We love the charm and vividness of these traditional prints and hope that they will bring joy to your shop or home.
Block-printed textiles are handmade products and the printing process is lengthy and complex. No piece is identical. Small spots and imperfections can occur from the printing process. These are not faults, but reminders of the fact that it is made by hand, and are to be expected´ [Minna Hildebrandt, chief]
