Description
Handmade from natural rattan, the three-seater Burford sofa from Desser features intricate woven wicker, creating an attractive and practical piece for an orangery, summerhouse, conservatory or living room. The backrest cushions and thick base cushions are made in the UK, in Manchester. The cushion inners are also made in the UK, so the quality and comfort are to the highest standard. The sofa complements matching boxy-shaped rattan furniture in the Burford range. Strong and durable, natural rattan is low maintenance and easy to keep clean. Wipe the furniture clean with a dry cloth or a slightly damp cloth and dry it afterwards. Keep the furniture in a dry environment and avoid leaving it under direct sunlight for prolonged periods. The furniture’s colour lasts longer if moved around a conservatory regularly to protect it from direct sunlight in the same spot. Sourced in Indonesia, rattan is fast-growing compared to wood alternatives. Every part of the rattan vine is used. Outer rattan cane is used for attractive weaving, and the solid core is steamed to manipulate it into beautiful furniture shapes.
Our Stylist Says
I love the Desser Burford rattan 3-seater sofa for its versatile mix of natural textures and relaxed style. It works particularly well in coastal, bohemian, or Scandinavian interiors where a light, airy feel is desired. The rattan frame adds warmth and visual interest, making it a great focal point in living rooms or sunrooms. For styling, pair it with soft, neutral throws and cushions to keep the look fresh and inviting, or contrast it with darker, textured accessories for a more eclectic vibe. Its practical design makes it suitable for both casual family spaces and more polished schemes, depending on how you accessorise.

About John Lewis
A Legacy of Innovation and Inclusion
John Lewis started as a small shop on London's Oxford Street in 1864. Today, it's part of a bigger family called the John Lewis Partnership, which also includes Waitrose stores.
What makes them special is that they're owned by their employees, known as 'Partners'. The idea, from the beginning, was to give everyone a say in how the business was run. With over 74,000 Partners (employees) at the heart of its operations, the essence of John Lewis's vision, from over a century ago, still echoes today being the largest employee-owned venture.
Adapting to Changing Times
Like many stores, John Lewis has had to change with the times. They've closed some shops but have grown their online business a lot, especially when more people started shopping online during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Their history is filled with key moments, like buying Peter Jones in 1905, adding Waitrose in 1937, and starting their website in 2001. They've always tried to adapt and stay relevant.
Commitment to a Greater Purpose
John Lewis believes in doing good and making the world a better place. This is seen in the way they treat their employees and customers. For example, in 2021, they were the first big UK store to give parents six months paid leave when they have a baby and two weeks paid leave if they lose a pregnancy. They've been around for over a century and always aim to do the right thing by everyone.
