Chair caning is a method of weaving chair seats and other furniture either while building new chairs or in the process of cane chair repair. In common use, “cane” may refer to any plant with a long, thin stem. However, the cane used for furniture is derived from the rattan vine native to Indonesia, the Philippines and Malaysia.
Rattan is a type of material that is used in wicker weaves. Rattan is a naturally growing vine-like species that is native to tropical regions of Australia, Asia, and Africa. For production use, the skin is peeled away and utilized for weaving purposes. Often times, the core is not wasted and finds use for different types of furniture. The rattan stems are processed and then packed in bundles specifically for chair bottom repair.
