Wicker frames are natural fencing and design structures made from young willow shoots, combining functionality with the aesthetics of natural materials. They are an ideal solution for defining spaces in gardens, cafés, and interiors, while providing protection from wind and discreet screening. Thanks to their organic character, they harmonize perfectly with surrounding plants, creating a cohesive and welcoming atmosphere.

Where do wicker frames work best?

Wicker frames have a wide range of uses across different spaces — from private gardens to commercial café patios. In home gardens they are used to mark boundaries between lawns and flower beds, create natural pathways, and designate play areas for children. They work well as protection for vegetable plots against pets and as windbreaks for delicate plants.

In commercial settings, especially in café patios and bistros, wicker frames enable the creation of intimate corners for guests, providing privacy without heavy constructions. Restaurateurs particularly appreciate their ability to gently separate different zones while maintaining the open character of outdoor spaces.

Balconies and terraces are another application area, where wicker constructions serve as unobtrusive screens that ensure privacy for residents. They also work well as elements that hide unsightly garden items such as trash bins, composters, or technical installations, while preserving an elegant overall look.

Why choose wicker frames?

The main advantage of wicker frames is their natural and eco-friendly character. Wicker, made from renewable young willow shoots, meets the growing demand for environmentally friendly products. In an era of returning to nature, wicker constructions are an ideal blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern design needs.

Aesthetic versatility is another key benefit — thanks to their neutral, organic look, wicker frames fit both modern, minimalist spaces and more rustic or traditional gardens. Their natural texture and warm tone complement plants beautifully, creating a harmonious whole.

Functionally, wicker constructions provide effective wind protection thanks to a dense weave that also reduces ambient noise. This property is especially appreciated in café patios, where guest comfort is paramount. The ability to customize dimensions allows adapting the construction to the specific requirements of any space.

Cost-effectiveness and easy installation make wicker frames an accessible solution for anyone wanting to quickly and attractively transform outdoor space without incurring significant expense.

How to care for wicker frames?

Maintenance of wicker frames requires regular application of protective treatments against moisture and UV radiation, to be repeated every 1–2 years. Cleaning involves regularly removing dust with a soft brush and occasionally wiping with a lightly damp cloth, avoiding excessive wetting of the structure. After periods of heavy rain, ensure good ventilation so moisture can evaporate freely — this significantly extends the lifespan of wicker elements.

What types of wicker frames are available?

Wicker frames come in a variety of configurations tailored to specific needs. Standard dimensions include constructions from 50 to 180 cm in height and 50 to 120 cm in width, with the most popular models being 160x120 cm and 180x120 cm, ideal for garden use.

In terms of material, we distinguish unpeeled willow wicker, which retains its natural bark for a rustic character, and peeled willow wicker with a smoother surface and lighter, more elegant appearance. The frame construction can be based on a wooden frame made of treated battens that provide overall stability.

Weave density affects functionality — tightly woven constructions offer better wind protection and greater privacy, while more loosely woven ones allow more light through and have a softer visual appearance.
