Guide to Buying Cane Furniture

Canes used for cane furniture are the stems of certain plants which are stripped and dried to convert it to the fibre form. The stem of rattan or other types of palms are thus processed and the fibre is used to weave or spin in various forms. Bamboo and wicker are also used to make cane furniture. Almost all varieties of canes are imported from tropical countries like south Asia and Africa. A remarkable property of cane is its tolerance to humidity. Apart from furniture, canes are used to make baskets, lamp shades and walking sticks. The material is very sturdy and durable. It is the flexibility of the material that makes cane a very suitable raw material for furniture making.

It is in the recent past, cane furniture attained importance as an eco-friendly alternative to wood. The rattan, cane and wicker furniture are very popular among people.
