History

Established in 1975.

A Cane Wood & Wicker Fixer is dedicated to providing the best Caning, Rush, Rattan Wrapping, Splint, Danish Cord, and Rawhide Furniture repair service! I have been doing this work since 1975, Over 30 years! Growing up working in my Families Wicker & Rattan Furniture store, in Southern California, we sold many different raw supplies for people to fix their own furniture. When I was 22, I bought a set of Press back Antique Oak Press Caned dining room chairs, needing to be re-​caned. I figured now I would see if I knew what I was talking about to customers with regards to how to do these repairs with the materials we sold… Turned out I like the process of Re-​Caning chairs & working with my hands a lot more than working in the Retail Business World! So when people asked where they could have their chairs recaned or fixed, I said «I can do it for you!!!»

Business Owner

For years I continued running both the store during the day, and doing my repair service at night. I eventually left the retail store in 1988, and opened my first repair shop in Orange Calif. I then did repairs to Cane, Wicker, & Rattan Furniture full time & the Business grew quite rapidly. After 2 years of it though, I decided Southern California, was too sunny and crowded for me. I thought about Las Vegas, Nevada TOO HOT! Idaho TOO much winter. Wyoming & Montana just seemed a little too far removed for me! Finally I decided & moved to Tigard (Portland) Oregon in 1990. Now in 2012, I am still Caning Chairs & Fixing Wicker!
