Chinese Cord – Seagrass cord 2 ply
- Available in braids and bales.
The Chinese cord, also known as Seagrass cord, is an excellent material obtained from the weaving of plant fibers that grow naturally along river courses in typically humid areas. Thanks to its 2 or 3-ply structure, this material guarantees high mechanical resistance, making it the ideal product for creating and restoring seats of all kinds.
Whether you are looking for Chinese cord by the meter for a small project or bale supplies for industrial production, our selection ensures a consistent diameter and flexibility that facilitates manual processing. Choosing Ci.Ga. cord means choosing a natural product that combines the charm of tradition with the strength required by modern design.
The History of Natural Chinese Cord: Strength and Tradition
The Natural Chinese Cord is a premium product created through the expert weaving of natural fibers collected along riverbanks. The particularly humid climate of these areas promotes the fast and abundant growth of the plant, ensuring a strong and flexible fiber.
Available in different variants, the cord can be twisted into 2 or 3 plies, featuring a round profile perfect for processing. With a diameter ranging from 3 to 6 mm, the high resistance of Chinese cord allows the weaving of chairs, sofas, backrests and furniture of all kinds. The classic checkerboard weave, typical of traditional “chairs”, is the highest expression of craftsmanship that uses this material to create extremely durable seats with timeless charm.
Origin, Evolution and Solutions for Professional Caning
Our Chinese cord, packaged in practical bundles of approximately 1.5 kg, comes from the untouched areas of inland China. After harvesting and weaving, the material is shipped from the port of Hong Kong to reach craft workshops all over the world.
Over the years, the evolution of design has led to the development of alternative materials such as cellulose (paper straw), but Chinese cord for chair caning remains the unbeatable choice for those looking for a natural and strong product. For those who need quick solutions, we also offer ready-woven chair seats made with natural Chinese cord, ideal for a fast seat replacement without giving up the quality of traditional materials.
