Cane furniture restoration

Based in Christchurch, The Cane Doctor can repair and re-cane chairs and other items of cane furniture using traditional skills and materials.

 

Do you own a cane chair or other item of furniture that cannot be used due to broken cane?

Commissions: 
complete re-caning

If you have an item of cane furniture where the cane is badly broken then this will need to be re-caned. You need to check that the chair has holes drilled into or through the woodwork for me to be able to use the traditional caning method.

See the Pricing page for more information.

If the cane on your item of furniture is less damaged then it might be possible to do a repair (known as splicing) where new cane is woven into the old cane to create a patch. Please note that this will not be as strong as re-caning.
