The Sorbus Hanging Rope Chair rests a 100 percent cotton macrame net within a sturdy round frame with an adorable fringe detail. The seat is suspended in the air by thick rope that supports up to 265 pounds. This lightweight favorite makes it so easy to set up extra seating outside — just find a sturdy place to support it and you’ve got a piece of furniture that’s happy to hang out and look pretty or serve as a secure place to take a load off.

Macrame is certainly having a moment, but that doesn't mean it's a new concept at all: In fact, the technique dates back to 13th century Arabic weavers, who used decorative knots to tie up the loose ends of rope and other textiles, as well as third-century Chinese weavers who pioneered the art of decorative knot making. More recently, the trend saw a revival in the 1960s (looking at you, boomers!) with macrame plant hangers, hammocks and more. Of course, because all trends come around eventually, it's now a hit among the TikTok crowd: In fact, the app has countless tutorials on how to create your own macrame decor, toys, accessories, even furniture.
