What is cane furniture called?
What cane furniture is called varies, but simply calling it "cane furniture" is generally acceptable. When the cane of a chair has been woven, you can call the furniture "wicker furniture" or "wicker cane furniture." Most cane comes from the rattan family of plants, so "rattan furniture" is often an accurate term for furnishings produced out of cane. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of cane furniture.

English Gothic Revival Oak Canterbury Bookcase with Original Cane, circa 1890
Located in Hannover, DE
A beautifully preserved English Gothic Revival Canterbury bookcase, handcrafted from solid oak and finished in its original rich dark stain. Dating from approximately 1890–1915, this elegant piece embodies the refined craftsmanship of the late Victorian and Edwardian periods. The design is distinguished by finely turned barley twist columns, graceful Gothic Revival cut-out details and a beautifully proportioned silhouette. The original hand-woven cane shelf has survived in exceptional condition, adding both warmth and authenticity while demonstrating the outstanding quality of the original construction. The deep, richly aged finish has developed an attractive natural patina over more than a century and remains remarkably well preserved. This Canterbury has never been restored, allowing the original craftsmanship and historic character to remain intact. Gentle signs of age and use are consistent with its history and contribute to its authenticity. Compact in size yet visually striking, it functions equally well as a bookcase, magazine rack or decorative side piece in both traditional and contemporary interiors. An increasingly scarce original example of English Gothic Revival furniture...
