[QUOTE="clutteredcloset49, post: 29640, member: 85"]Caning was a process used to make seats. There is machine caned and hand caned. I don't know what yours had originally. If it was originally machine caned it would indicate a later date. I'm sorry, I don't know how to tell what yours would have been. See where the fabric is coming off the top of the back of your chair? You can see holes where the cane would have gone.
