Most of the worlds cane furniture, comes from Asia, and different parts offer different types of quality and different grades.After spending many years searching different parts of Asia for furniture it is with out question the very best cane comes from Indonesia. This where we at Cane Direct buy all of our furniture, we have found not only that you can get the quality of cane but also the best finish, from very experienced workers.

There are large amounts of cane and rattan comming out of China, but the quality is now where near that of the rattan and cane that comes from Indonessia, the reason for this is because the cane from China dose not grow in the same way, it cannot grow any where near as thick as the canes from Indonessia, and in turn this means that they can not produce grade A cane, which is so importent to our business.

Sure if you are selling a product that is not marketed with guarantees like at Cane Direct, then there is no problem with buying your raw material from China, for the simple reason that you are not going to sell the end product as up market furniture.

The other problem with this type of furniture from China is that the weavers are not as skilled as those from Indonesia, because they have not been weaving any where near as long, don’t get me wrong they have not just started to do this type of work, they have been making cane furniture for many years, but no where near as long as the people of Indonesia.
