We got this very unique loveseat in recently with a giant hole in the woven seat. The back is still in great shape, and even has a double caned back, which makes this such a nice piece for the owner. We were able to replace the seat easily enough, and now it is time for the tricky part. Color Matching! This chair has a very nice artistic finish which makes the color matching an interesting challenge for us.
We began by applying a white base to the cane. As you can see in the picture above, there is white showing through in the crevices where the cane overlaps. Once this white is completely dry, we will rub on a darker Umber color. This will create the uneven 'antiqued' look that you can see on the loveseat back. Pretty neat right?
