A natural woven seat imbues in a chair the feeling of craftsmanship, casual luxury and heritage. Sifting through the many varieties of weaving material, we take a look at three of the most popular in modern design: Danish paper cord, paper fiber rush and woven cane. While woven cane is fairly recognizable, there can be difficulty distinguishing the difference between paper cord and paper rush. This week we break it down using some favorites from the SUITE NY collection.
