Water Hyacinth
Established in America in 1997, ROBERGE & CO. specializes in the importation of Water Hyacinth Furniture from Thailand. From the tranquil waterways of Thailand, a new environmentally friendly furniture design is now available. The water hyacinth plant, renowned for the beauty of its large blue flowers was introduced to Thailand and planted in the ponds of the Royal Palaces. From there it has spread rapidly into the waterways, lakes and rivers throughout Thailand. This plant reproduces so fast it became a severe problem in the waterways. The people of Thialand have helped curb the rapid growth by using it to make naturally beautiful furniture that lasts a lifetime.
The superb quality is reflected in the work of the expert craftspeople who hand make each piece over a period of up to 15 days. The simplicity and natural look including its delicate texture have drawn interest from many Interior Specialists, Designers and Decorators all over the world. The creative artists in Thailand have inspired water hyacinth furniture of true art and beauty.
Servicing the Residential, Interior Design, Architectural, and Contract Design markets we are able to provide an exclusive range of furniture made from nature's beauty.
Care and cleaning of water hyacinth furniture is simple. Vacuum dust using a brush attachment. Brush with a nylon brush to remove dried food, etc. If necessary wash with soap and water, then dry completely.
