What Is Chair Caning?

Chair caning, also known as seat weaving, is a time-honored craft that uses the bark or inner skin of the rattan palm to intricately weave the seat—and sometimes the back—of a chair. These chairs typically have solid wooden frames and are often considered works of art.

Although the popularity of caned furniture has fluctuated over time, many families still own treasured heirlooms that showcase the beauty and craftsmanship of traditional caning.

Mr. Holmes has a gift. I couldn’t believe the work he had done. Absolutely brought tears to my eyes when I picked up my rocking chair that has been in our family for years.
