A Simple, Natural and Stylish Decorative Material: Cane Webbing Roll

As a furniture manufacturer or designer, you might hear about cane webbing roll quite often, as it now has gained lots of popularity in both residential and commercial spaces, especially in homes, restaurants, and hotels. With people’s increasing attention to environmental awareness, natural and eco-friendly materials have become a top choice for furniture and decorative pieces.

It is common for you to meet cane rattan webbing rolls in your daily lives since it is widely used on chair-back decorations, room dividers, lamp accents, and interior designs. It can effortlessly enhance the aesthetics of any space, creating a relaxed and inviting atmosphere for everyone.

However, these rattan cane webbing sheets come in natural or synthetic varieties, and it can be hard to tell them apart without close inspection. In this guide, we will explore the key differences between various styles of cane-woven panels based on their colours and patterns, helping you make informed decisions for your designs or projects!

Differences between Diverse Colours of Cane Rattan Webbing Roll

When you are choosing the right cane material for your furniture, it is essential for you to understand the colour differences between diverse rattan cane woven sheets. That is because your selection will directly affect your product’s aesthetic.

• Natural greenish cane webbing:

Natural rattan cane mesh roll primarily comes in two major hues: green and yellow. Their colour difference can be subtle and may appear similar at first glance. However, if you get closer and look strictly, you will see the differences. It is noticeable that only natural caned-woven mesh rolls have these two colours.

The greenish rattan webbing normally reflects the natural state of the cane material after it is separated from the outer layer of a rattan plant. Its base tone is typically in a straw-like colour. When you come closer, you will notice there are some soft green tints across its surface, giving it an overall greenish appearance. This natural green hue is the reason why this material is commonly called “natural greenish rattan webbing.”

• Natural yellowish cane rattan webbing:

Yellowish rattan cane panel, just like its greenish counterpart, is derived from the outer bark of the rattan plant. However, it is often more expensive due to the additional labour-intensive process involved. For this type of material, skilled craftsmen need to meticulously sort and remove all greenish cane strips to achieve a uniform yellowish appearance, which is time- and effort-consuming.

After this careful selection, the remaining cane strips will all have a natural straw-like colour. This warm, neutral tone makes it an ideal choice for projects where an organic and earthy aesthetic is desired, adding a touch of authenticity and charm to any space.

• 100% bleached vs. semi-bleached:

The bleaching process is a unique treatment normally applied exclusively to natural cane mesh webbing to enhance its aesthetic appeal, whereas artificial cane weaving does not require this step. As the name suggests, bleaching can be done either partially or fully. You can choose the bleaching option based on your unique needs.

Compared to non-bleached cane webbing roll materials, bleached ones normally appear lighter and whiter. Some people choose to bleach their natural cane-woven sheets for a fresher, brighter colour, while others do so to make their materials easy to dye into different hues.

Distinguishing between 100% and semi-bleached cane webbing roll is straightforward. When you place them together, it is easy to tell that fully bleached material looks whiter, while the semi-bleached cane mesh panel has a slightly yellowish tone.

However, since bleaching can only be done to natural cane, even if it is fully bleached, the cane mesh roll will eventually develop a yellowish hue over time due to its natural ageing. Artificial materials will be a better choice for those seeking cane webbing sheet with long-lasting colour stability!

• Artificial colourful cane webbing:

Other colours such as light yellow, black, white, coffee colour and other tones, normally appear on synthetic cane mesh rolls since artificial materials can easily be manufactured into diverse colours based on your unique project requirements. Therefore, when you see some bright or colourful cane webbing rolls around you, they are likely synthetic materials.

Differences between Three Popular Cane Rattan Webbing Sheets

In addition to figuring out the colour differences between natural and synthetic cane mesh panel materials, it is also important for you to understand the three major patterns of cane rattan webbing rolls as your selection of different patterns will affect your interior or furniture designs.

Radio Weave Cane Webbing: This pattern is the most classic style as it is simple but stylish, suitable for spaces with different styles. Designed in square patterns, this cane rattan roll material is woven by cane over and under to create hollow square patterns. Therefore, it is also called square cane rattan roll by people.  Compared to the other two types of cane mesh rolls, it is easier to manufacture, making it popular for lots of furniture suppliers. What is more, due to the overlapping weaving craftsmanship, this style can easily decorate your products and turn them into eye-catching items.

Hexagonal Cane Webbing: Due to its unique octagon design, this cane woven panel is also called octagonal cane webbing, star pattern or open weave cane rattan webbing by people. It is noticeable that, although this material is commonly called hexagonal cane woven sheet, it is actually crafted in hollow patterns of octagons instead of hexagons. For this style, an additional handcrafted process is needed. People need to manually insert cane strips across the whole panel at a 45-degree angle to form the octagon patterns, therefore, this style is normally more expensive than square cane mesh panel. Due to its fancy design, it is often used to decorate cabinet doors, furniture armrests, chair backs and so on.

Close-Woven Cane Webbing: This type of cane woven panel is relatively unique compared to the other two that I mentioned above. That is because, for this style, rattan cane strips are woven closely together, which does not have any hollow patterns on the sheet. Because of this special weaving technique, close-woven cane rolls perfectly combine both modern and natural beauty, which can easily add a sense of sophistication to any space. It is more likely to be used on wall and ceiling decorations.

After reading the above information, I believe that you have already gained some useful knowledge to distinguish between various types of rattan cane rattan rolls, which can effectively make your selection process easy and convenient.
