Looking for a lounger that is every bit as stylish as it is sustainable? Well the Tonecoon by PIE checks off both boxes with its beautiful hand-woven water hyacinth and rattan frame. Water hyacinth is a highly-renewable natural fiber that grows so quickly in parts of Asia that it is often considered a nuisance, so the fact that it’s being used to create a durable and modern piece of furniture is pretty amazing. Plus, the Tonecoon is so versatile that it can be used as either an indoor piece or as outdoor seating.
