WHICH TYPE OF CANE SEAT DO YOU HAVE?
Pressed cane seats are installed in a prewoven sheet. They have a beading or spline around the edge of the cane. When the old cane is out, there is a routered groove on the outside edge of the chair.

A hand-woven cane chair has holes drilled into the wooden seat. The indidvidual strands are woven into the chair and tied off underneath the seat. You should be able to see knots underneath the chair where the cane has been tied into a knot.
