The mark

Weaver group, cane plot and varnish day.

Weaving families in Battambang and Kampong Thom make rattan furniture by hand. We record each piece's weaver, its cane source and its finishing day, so a buyer knows who made it and from what.

Weaver mark

Each piece names the weaver's group and the workshop it was finished in.

Cane source

The cane source is recorded as a forest-edge plot, with the harvest season.

Finishing date

The finishing date and the varnish batch are written on the piece line.
