In the 1970s, a life-changing trip to Asia inspired Allen Palecek to establish Palecek Furniture, a San Francisco Bay Area-based furniture company renowned for its mixed natural fiber and hardwood furniture. Beginning with nothing more than a few rattan baskets brought back from Palecek’s Asian travels, Palecek Furniture is now a full-fledged luxury brand, flush with worldly appeal. With rattan as its signature, vintage Palecek furniture is unique in its allure, capable of transporting any room out of the everyday realm.
