Hmm, someone who did not know how to reupholster chairs on these. (it looks like they picked the wrong kind of fabric for something in heavy use). Not sure if these are significant chairs or not. Walnut? #random #reupholstering #furniture
**not going to snag them, because I don't have a barn or a buyer for said chairs 🤪
@ai6yr
These are not that special. The caning looks 1950s, and will need to be replaced if parched and cracked.
These are good ones to practice your passing skills.
@EugestShirley Thanks! Noted, don't snag chairs with caning.

@ai6yr
If they are fabulous do. You replace caning on a chair the same way you replace a screen in a window.

First you figure out how it was mounted before. Then decide the pattern you want.
Are you buying or weaving?

@ai6yr
If the caning is in good condition, a little cleaning might be enough.
If it is dry, but not cracked, re-humidifying might be good.

If it is cracked, broken or just glued on, it is not good.
