Where Caribbean Charm Meets Mediterranean Soul
Rattan Imports began with a love story—not just between two people, but between two worlds, two cultures, and a shared passion for creating spaces where families gather and memories are made.
I grew up in New York with roots that stretched back to the sun-drenched shores of Barbados, where my mother was born. Some of my most cherished childhood memories are of visiting the island, where rattan furniture graced nearly every veranda and living room. Those beautifully woven chairs and tables weren't just furniture—they were where stories were told, where grandmothers shared recipes, where the family came together as the trade winds blew through open windows. That distinctive warmth and charm of old Barbados never left me.
My partner Nino brings his own heritage to our story. Born and raised in Sicily, he grew up surrounded by Italy's legendary appreciation for beauty, craftsmanship, and the art of gathering around a table. In his world, furniture isn't merely functional—it's an invitation. An invitation to linger over meals, to celebrate life's moments, to build the kind of connections that sustain us.
Together, we created Rattan Imports, and it has truly become our baby. We've poured our hearts into sourcing pieces that honor the natural beauty and timeless appeal of rattan, while ensuring each item meets the standards of quality and design that our combined backgrounds demand.
From Las Vegas to Your Home
We're based in Las Vegas, Nevada, with manufacturing and distributing partnerships nationwide. We primarily distribute to the U.S. through our extensive freight network, but we also tackle larger, more exotic hospitality projects—bringing our vision of warmth and elegance to resorts, restaurants, and hotels that want to create unforgettable guest experiences.
More Than a Business—A Family
What sets us apart isn't just our curated collection; it's how we approach every relationship. We've built a team that feels like family, because to us, they are. We believe that when you invest in your people—supporting their growth, their careers, their families—that care radiates outward to every customer interaction.
We don't measure our success solely in sales, but in relationships. We celebrate the customers who return to us time and again, who email us photos of their newly decorated sunrooms, who call to ask our advice on the perfect piece. We take pride in knowing our employees' children's names, in celebrating their milestones, in creating an environment where everyone feels valued.
Our Promise to You
At Rattan Imports, we're driven by a simple but profound purpose: to help you create a home that reflects your story, your style, and your values. We believe that beautiful, thoughtfully crafted furniture has the power to transform not just a room, but the way a family experiences their time together.
Every piece we offer is selected with care, imagining the conversations it will host, the quiet morning coffees it will witness, the celebrations it will be part of. We're here not just to sell you furniture, but to be your partners in making your house a home—one that welcomes, embraces, and endures.
Thank you for being part of our story. We can't wait to be part of yours.
With warmth and gratitude,
Nino & Joonmi
