Frequently Asked Questions
OUR PRODUCTS
Where are your designs from?
Inspired by nature and our Asian heritage, our designs are created by our team based in Singapore.
Our Singapore team works closely with our factory production team in Indonesia to test, develop and manufacture our designs to ensure functionality, quality and value.
Where are your products made?
Our products are handcrafted with care, mainly in our factory in Indonesia, where 70% of the world's rattan comes from and where the best rattan craftspeople are. Preserving rattan craft is preserving our heritage; it is the pride of Southeast Asia.
Can your products be customised?
Yes, we are able to customise some of our designs in a selection of materials and sizes. An additional fee and/or minimum order quantity may apply, please reach out to us at shop@naturenative.asia if you'd like to find out more.
If you are looking to furnish your restaurants, hospitality, office spaces and etc. with a dose of nature and personalised furnishings, you can connect with us here.
At Nature Native, we have in-house designers and our own factory facility to support a range of commercial projects. Reach out to us and let us know how we can support your business.
Can I place my cane furniture outdoors?
While cane furniture can add a beautiful, natural touch to outdoor spaces, the material is susceptible to warping and mould in places with high humidity, and can become brittle and faded over prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
You may wish to place these pieces in shaded outdoor areas such as sheltered patios and balconies. We recommend the use of outdoor furniture covers and regular cleaning to ensure they remain in good condition.
If you like the look of cane but are concerned about its suitability for outdoor use, our special Alu-Cane Furniture offers the same aesthetic appeal with greater durability for outdoor environments. The materials used are designed to withstand weather elements more effectively than natural cane.
We have also got a selection of Outdoor & Weatherproof furniture suitable for your outdoor spaces.

How long will it take for my order to be ready for delivery?

If your item is marked with a date under "Estimated Arrival" on the product page, we’ll need 4-12 weeks to make your item and have it slot into our next container shipment, the estimated arrival period will be indicated on the product page. Your item will be ready for delivery once checked at our local warehouse. We’ll send you an email update when your order is ready for delivery scheduling.
- Order containing Ready Stock and Pre-Order Items
For an order containing items with different availability dates, unless split delivery is specially requested, we will fulfill your order once all the items have been consolidated. Additional charges may apply for the split delivery if the sub-total does not meet the minimum S$150 for free local delivery. If you wish to receive in-stock items first, we recommend separating your checkouts.

We work with our delivery partners to send your orders to you. Local delivery in Singapore is free for orders S$150 and above. A delivery fee of S$15 applies for orders below this amount.

What if I need my item to be carried up the stairs?
Please be advised that our deliveries do not include staircarry and additional charges will apply if required. Kindly let us know when delivery arrangements are made so that we can ensure that manpower is catered for.
Additional fees at S$10 per manpower for each flight not accessible by elevator (also applicable to stairs within landed properties or HDB maisonette) will be charged on every item. i.e. If you require 2 helpers to carry one armchair up one flight of stairs, the staircarry charges will be $20.
