From Vintage to Vogue: The Revival of Cane in Interiors
Some materials have a way of staying relevant, no matter how trends shift. Cane is one of them.
Once seen mostly in heritage furniture, cane has now carved a permanent spot in the modern Indian home. And honestly? We love that for it.
At Saloni Narayankar Interiors, we’ve watched cane go from a quiet accent to a standout element—gracing everything from wardrobes to partitions. And the best part? It doesn’t just look beautiful—it feels right.
Let’s talk about why cane is having its moment. Again.
1. Cane Feels Like Home
There’s something incredibly grounding about cane. Its texture, its warmth, the way it filters light through its weave—it instantly softens a space.In a world that’s leaning more towards neutral tones, natural materials, and calming interiors, cane fits right in without trying too hard.
Whether it’s a Japandi-inspired bedroom or a modern Indian living room, cane gives the space a sense of ease. It’s minimal, yet expressive.
2. A Material That’s Kind to the Planet
Sustainability isn’t just a buzzword—it’s something more and more clients care about. Cane is one of those rare materials that is light on the earth, and easy on the eyes. It grows fast, needs little processing, and blends beautifully with other sustainable elements like linen, bamboo, or reclaimed wood.
3. Why It Works So Well in Indian Homes
Indian summers can be unforgiving—but cane breathes. It’s lightweight, doesn’t trap heat, and brings a certain lightness to Indian homes, both literally and visually. It also transitions effortlessly across styles—whether you love something contemporary, coastal, or rooted in Indian craft.
How We Use Cane at Saloni Narayankar Interiors
Cane isn’t just a decorative touch in our projects—it’s a part of our material palette. Here’s how we love using it:
Furniture pieces like accent chairs, coffee tables, and sideboards
Wardrobe shutters for a textured, breathable finish
Partitions to separate spaces without blocking light
Pendant lighting that adds warmth and visual softness
Headboards and nightstands for a cozy, crafted feel
And we don’t stop there. We often pair cane with:
Matte duco finishes for that clean, modern edge
Natural wood veneers for a layered, earthy vibe
Brass hardware for a touch of quiet luxury
Every piece is designed to not just look good but also feel intuitive and age beautifully over time.
We’re all looking for homes that feel intentional, warm, and grounded—and cane helps us get there.
It’s more than a trend. It’s a quiet design statement that brings nature indoors while staying timeless and functional.
