The rattan gauge, to choose the right gauge

This tool lets the craftsperson measure the exact diameter of rattan pith and select the gauge suited to the work. Essential for the caning of chairs and armchairs, restoring antique seats, precision re-seating and furniture renovation, it guarantees an even result.

Using it well

Before you start, compare the diameter of your rattan pith with the notches of the gauge to choose the strand suited to the caning pitch. Good sizing avoids irregularities and makes weaving easier.
