DESCRIPTION
With our Akara rattan plant stand, you can bring a piece of nature into your home and give your room a warm, relaxed boho flair. The planter made from 100% plant-based materials allows you to creatively arrange your plants at different heights. This allows you to create a stylish accent that shows your love of nature even in urban environments.
Made from sturdy and sustainable rattan, Akara provides a stable base for your plants while protecting the ground from scratches. It is ideal for flower pots with a diameter of up to 20 cm and ensures that they stand securely and cannot tip over. Thanks to its neutral colours and minimalist design, it is just as versatile as a normal rattan plant basket. It blends harmoniously into many living styles.
Whether in the living room, bedroom or on the balcony – Akara gives your home a natural elegance and also improves the indoor climate by raising plants to a slightly higher position, allowing them to exert their air-purifying effect even better.
Akara is elaborately handcrafted on the island of Java in Indonesia. We attach great importance to fair payment and good working conditions. The use of high-quality natural materials and production by experienced craftspeople emphasise the sustainability and quality of this product. Therefore, you can be sure that you are getting a long-lasting and environmentally friendly accessory for your home.
Also note our other listings – in our shop you will find many different baskets, home accessories and bags made from sustainable materials under fair production conditions.

➤ The sustainable main material: rattan
This rapidly renewable raw material is obtained from rattan palms, which grow as climbing plants in the tropical forests of Indonesia. Their branches and trunks are harvested by hand without damaging the surrounding trees and then dried. The inside of the branches and trunks is used in various thicknesses for furniture, baskets or lamps, while the bark is cut into strips and used for filigree wickerwork, such as the well-known ‘Viennese weave’. As rattan palms need an intact ecosystem to grow, rattan processing is an incentive for the local population to preserve healthy, natural forests.
➤ Our production partners: Selected according to fair trade criteria
This plant stand is handmade in Java, Indonesia.
When selecting our local production partners, we emphasise fair payment, safe working conditions and reasonable working hours. We work exclusively with small family businesses that have a maximum of 20 to 30 employees. They are all experienced craftspeople of legal age. Older people in particular, who can no longer work in agriculture, benefit from jobs in handicrafts, allowing them to use the skills they have learnt from an early age to earn money and pass on traditional production methods to the younger generation. They have often told us how happy they are to be able to create something meaningful with this work and earn a good living. As all work steps are carried out by hand, the production process generates hardly any greenhouse gas emissions. We ensure all of this through regular on-site visits and ongoing personal contact with the companies.
➤ The production process: from raw material to finished plant stand
For our plant stands, the dried rattan fibres are cut to the right length by experienced craftsmen at our production partners in the Indonesian province of West Java and then bent using heat to give them the desired shape: Particularly thick rattan fibres form the basic structure of Akara, and the plant stand is then held together by nails and the bark of the rattan palm cut into strips, which is wrapped around the thicker fibres. In total, it takes just under three hours to make a plant stand.
