Rustic wicker furniture is ideal for the summer's warm weather and the 'Baud' collection by Vito Selma is the perfect way for homeowners to usher in the outdoor entertaining season. The pieces from the collection have a very wavelike quality to them, with the [wicker chairs, tables and seats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wicker-side-table) dipping low to the ground. The 'Baud' collection was [inspired by the ocean](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pacific-collection) and the island lifestyle.

The pieces are made entirely from wicker; the table contains a clear glass top and the chairs and seating segments contain comfy white bottoms. The seats are ideal for entertaining and socializing as they are rounded and allow guests to face one another. For those interested in purchasing pieces from the 'Baud' collection, contact information is available on Vito Selma's personal website.
