Hand woven caning is done using long
strands of cane woven through the holes shown above one at a time. It takes
a number of hours to complete an average job. Our charge for hand weaving
cane is presently $1.35 a hole. The charge is calculated by counting the
holes around the perimeter of the work area.
Prewoven caning is done by using cane woven by a machine and held in place in a grove by a reed spline. Depending on the dimensions, we charge $80.00 per panel.
