Cane Hand Cane Pressed Cane If your piece has drilled holes around the seat it is a hand cane. Price is determined by the number of holes. If your piece has a groove with a spline in it, it is pressed cane. Price is determined by size. Cane is not maintenance free. Dry, hot temperatures can dry it out, making it brittle and sag. This can cut down on the life of the cane. Once or twice a year, wet the backside of the cane with water and let it dry naturally. Contact Us
