At Alexander Rose, our woven furniture collections like Ocean Pearl, San Marino, and Monte Carlo have consistently been at the top of our customers’ shopping lists. Their timeless appeal lies not only in their design but also in the exceptional workmanship and skill that goes into creating each piece. Every item is meticulously handcrafted, from the frame to the intricate weave, in our factory in Cebu, the Philippines—renowned for its long-standing tradition of top-quality weaving.

What makes our weaves special?
Our woven furniture is crafted from the highest quality all-weather materials, designed to endure the toughest conditions while maintaining beauty and comfort.
· San Marino Collection: Features Viro Fibres, a durable material made from high-density polyethylene (HDPE). These fibres are non-toxic, recyclable, and hand-woven onto lightweight, rust-resistant aluminium frames, ensuring strength and sustainability.
· Cordial and Cordial Luxe Collections: Incorporate marine-grade rope, celebrated for its exceptional weather resistance and easy-to-clean nature. These contemporary designs are not only stylish but also practical.
The durability and low-maintenance nature of our woven ranges have made them a popular choice year after year, effortlessly withstanding all weather conditions in the UK.
Handcrafted in Cebu
Much of our woven furniture is produced in Cebu, a region globally recognised for its heritage of skilled weaving. At Alexander Rose, we believe in valuing and empowering the people who make our furniture, as their expertise is central to our success.
How is the furniture made?
Every piece begins its journey with a thoughtful design. Our team collaborates closely with the Cebu factory to transform ideas into prototypes. Here's how our furniture is made:
- Frame Construction: Aluminium tubes are welded and tested to create strong, lightweight, and corrosion-resistant frames. Aluminium ensures that our chairs remain durable and weatherproof.
- Weaving: Skilled weavers meticulously handcraft each piece using techniques unique to each collection. The basket weave technique is used for the San Marino and Monte Carlo ranges, while the V-pattern weave is reserved for the Ocean and Ocean Pearl collections.
- Quality Assurance: Every item undergoes rigorous inspection at both our Cebu factory and by the quality control team in the UK to ensure it meets our exacting standards.
- Finishing Touches: Once weaving is complete, the furniture is carefully packaged and prepared for its journey to customers around the world.
