Thank you dear friends!!!
Hola Miguel!! yes, you're right it comes from Erik
Maurice, I will stain rattan for sure, I don't like the natural color, I will try to give a "lived" look at the rattan... or at least I will try
Thank you Rick, you are very kind

Can you give me the width of the rattan? the one used for the handle and the other crossing over the first one (yellow color)? Thank you so much!
Dear Lew.... yes I'm too far from Africa, but I will try to find some african pieces in the next future!
