"Birthed thousands of years before popularised during the Victorian height of the British Empire, caning is one of the most ancient furniture making techniques.
This 2016 rendition of caned furnitures by Cane Collection was envisioned by Atelier 2+ and materialised by the meticulous hands of Podium Manufacturer.
Rarely does a material expresses a strong sense of place while showcasing elegance and comfort, simultaneously.
Caned furniture is one such rare occurrence. The collection aims to insert the still beauty of contemporarily decorated space with a warm lightness that radiate life and vibrancy.
The unique airiness of caned surface work as a conduit of light and air, allowing these elements a freedom of movement not found through other types of furniture surface material."
MMichael Thonet, 1881
The famed no. 14 chair in wood with a cane seat, was designed in 1859 by Michael Thonet. With the advance of industrialization,
the caning process was mechanized, opening the way to mass production. Some 45 million no. 14 chairs were produced.
Marcel Breuer, 1928
The renowned architect and furniture designer Marcel Breuer, an icon of Modernism and the Bauhaus movement, designed the
“Cesca chair” in 1928, at one of the high points of the Art Deco period. The chair was an homage to craftsmanship.
Cozy and super comfortable, the Norah collection is oozing style. Featuring a solid ash wood frame with a natural or black finish, woven rattan seat and back, it truly captures the beauty of the caning technique. This light and stylish chairs are a real invitation to relax!
