What is a Rush Seat?

A traditional rush seat is woven completely by hand. Each strand is twisted to create the familiar envelope pattern, to produce a uniform and durable seat. Our natural Dutch rushes are imported directly from the Netherlands and are a distinctive green, gold and brown colour which mellows over time.
