Hello! It's Erika from small shop, with another edition of "Design Under the Influence" featuring, the rattan hanging chair. I've been seeing them everywhere lately, yet I have always secretly planned to hang one in a future home. I can no longer deny its prominence in eclectic chic interiors!
As many times as I've visited the Parker Palm Springs designed by Jonathan Adler and sat in the hanging chairs suspended in the lobby's firepit lounge (below), I honestly didn't even think that I was sitting in a piece of furniture design history. The designer? Nanna Ditzel. In 1957, she created this wicker-esque version:

They come in various styles, but my favorite would have to be the more open, bamboo style version, inspired by the 1958 "Eureka" chair designed by Giovanni Travasa and seen in the suites of the Parker Palm Springs hotel:

Can we attribute its recent popularity to Jonathan Adler himself? I'd say so. Take a look at these gorgeous rooms featuring this edition's star:

In the market for one? I've seen it on Amazon for $380 and on Serena & Lily for $450 (above), but even better... on Fran's Wicker for $195.
Would you do the hanging chair?

Love these hanging chairs! I def would love to bring them back! They look so comfy! Perfect for reading!
Just hung one this weekend in Newport! It was found in a dumpster....can't beat free, right??
I'm loving the simple yellow pillows.
Given the chance, I think I would do it. It's such a fun element in any space. Great round up.
I have to admit everytime I see one my heart skips a beat! I love them.

Hanging chairs have been on my radar for quite awhile now - I'd love to incorporate one on my deck
Pier One has them on sale at $249.99 and they are really nice. Your pictures are beautiful! Makes me want to take advantage of their sale!
These are cute. Although it can look tacky if not done right.
we had a rattan hanging chair in our home in Hawaii. Loved it while growing up. I'm glad it's back!
Those hanging chairs are simply amazing and your blog is so inspiring! Love it!

I certainly like the look but not sure about the comfort factor...you chose lots of examples, though. Thanks for sharing
I have the perfect tree for one of these chairs! It's a huge oak in my front yard. I would LOVE to have one!
I have always been obsessed with hanging chairs and have wanted one of my own. I think it is the kid inside me, bringing back the fond memories of swinging from the tree in my backyard, that has always had a soft spot for the playful hanging chair. I love the thought of them either outdoor or indoor to add a fun element to a space.
