Wicker dog bed are probably one of the most beautiful types of dog bed around. Wicker does not only appear aesthetically pleasant, but is durable and long lasting. Certainly, everybody wants a dog bed that is not only beautiful, but long lasting as well. For those who do, then wicker is definitely the furniture for them.
   
Wicker is made of natural materials that are biodegradable and environmentally friendly. One of the most common material used in making wicker, is rattan. Rattan is a strong, flexible, and thick material. Thus, when made into furniture, rattan is one of the most durable, beautiful, and easy to maintain. Wicker is hard woven fibre formed into a rigid material, usually used for baskets or furniture. Wicker is often made of material of plant origin, but plastic fibres are also used.

Materials used can be any part of a plant, such as the cores of cane of rattan stalks, or whole thicknesses of plants, as with willow switches. Other popular materials include reed and bamboo.
   
Often a frame is made of stiffer materials, after which more pliant material is used to fill in the frame. Wicker is light yet sturdy, making it suitable for furniture that will be moved often. It is often used for porch and patio furniture.
   
There are two types of wicker furniture available—natural and synthetic. Natural wicker is well-known for its strength and durability, and is unsurpassed for beauty and comfort, although it requires maintenance to keep it in good shape. Synthetic types include paper-wrapped high tensile wire (using the Lloyd Loom process patented in the early 1900s), and plastic or resin (often preferred for outdoor use).
