Alink to a site that shows how rattan cane is harvested and processed.

  1. Often at exhibitions and sales I am asked where the cane I use comes from. I answer, "From the tropical jungles of Indonesia and China where it is a long vine found there. " The link above has beautiful pictures of the vine and its tropical setting, its transportation to the processing factories, its processing and the manufacture of products. There are also thoughtful discussion questions at the end of the link.
