Cane Spotting at Colonial Williamsburg! 🪑

During our visit to the Art Museums of Colonial Williamsburg last week, we spotted two beautiful examples of antique cane furniture: a large sofa dating to circa 1800–1815 and a chaise lounge from circa 1820.

Both pieces showcase the timeless appeal of woven cane. Beyond its beauty, the open weave served a practical purpose, allowing air to circulate around the body—a welcome comfort on a hot summer day!

It’s always a pleasure to see the craftsmanship and ingenuity of traditional cane furniture preserved for future generations.

Before and after of a Italianate revival painted cane armchair, circa late 19th to early 20th century. We replaced the broken pressed cane seat and now it’s tight as a drum. What can we redo for you?

Natural Bull Rush vs. Fiber Rush

While natural bull rush and fiber rush look very similar when woven, they are made from completely different materials and are intended for different uses.

* Bull rush is made from natural seagrass that is twisted into a cord for weaving. It is suitable for indoor and outdoor use.

* Fiber rush is made from brown kraft paper that is machine-twisted into a weaving cord. It is intended for indoor use only.

So, while the finished products may look similar, the important difference is where the chair or piece will be used. For outdoor applications, natural bull rush is the appropriate choice; for indoor furniture, either material can provide a similar traditional woven appearance.

So the only question that remains is, “What can we re-do for you?”

Well folks, here is the first completed chair in the set. Seat and back have a matching pattern right down to the strand counts. I’ll be spending the next week restoring another chair and rocker to match. What can we redo for you?

Well I taught myself a new style of weaving today based only off a picture. Can you spot the repeated pattern? Here’s a hint, there are 12 rectangles hidden within the rectangle shaped back. Customer is going to be so impressed I could replicate the weave. What can we redo for you?

The past two weeks have been productive. Just finished a set of 6 natural woven seagrass rush seat bottoms. The smell of the fresh twisted grass is amazing. In time it will loose the green tint and dry to a beautiful warm wheat color. They’re ready for another 30 years of service. What can we redo for you?

Another successful project restoring the original look of the rocker. Hand-woven seat using Jute rope in a basket-weave pattern. Client is over the moon because we brought new life to the old family rocking chair. What can we redo for you?
