Six way weave cane panelling standard 1/2 inch spacing


Of the same Blue Riband top quality as our hand cane. Available by the linear foot or complete 50 foot roll. It is not suitable for hand caned chairs with holes drilled through the frame as panelling needs to be glued into a groove with a covering filet of cane to give it strength. Half inch weave is the most regularly used in most applications. The measurement is taken from the centre of one pair of vertical or horizontal canes to the centre of the next pair.

18" wide £385.00 per 50 foot roll + £13.50 p&p (England) including VAT

£8.50 per linear foot including VAT for smaller orders

Six way weave cane panelling fine 3/8 inch spacing


Of the same Blue Riband top quality as our hand cane. Only available by the linear foot. It is not suitable for hand caned chairs with holes drilled through the frame as it needs to be glued into a groove with a covering filet of cane to give it strength. The photo left shows the difference in the size of weave between half inch and three eighths inch. The measurement is taken from the centre of one pair of vertical or horizontal canes to the centre of the next pair. Due to a shortage of the highly skilled weavers needed to produce this pattern, the supply of this material is severely limited.
