The Cane-line Standard: Weatherproof Danish Design
Cane-line's furniture is built around materials developed specifically to withstand outdoor conditions without losing comfort or style. Cane-line Weave, the brand's signature synthetic wicker, is made to resist UV fading, water and frost while keeping the hand-woven look of natural rattan. Solid teak and powder-coated aluminium frames are used across the dining and lounge ranges for structural durability, and cushion fabrics are designed to shed moisture quickly, reducing the risk of mould or mildew during humid Australian summers.
The Cane-line Range at Artifex
The Cane-line collection at Artifex includes 4 dining tables, 3 coffee tables, 9 dining and occasional chairs, 7 lounge chairs and armchairs, and 2 outdoor sofas. The Sticks and Glaze ranges anchor the dining side of the collection, with the Glaze Dining Table and Sticks Dining Table suited to larger entertaining spaces. For everyday seating, the Breeze, Bliss and Al Dente chairs offer lighter, stackable options, while the Sticks Sofa and Bliss Sofa bring a sofa-style seating option to courtyards and covered outdoor living areas. The Gem and Stay Swivel chairs round out the range with statement lounge pieces built for relaxed, all-day comfort.
Styling Cane-line for Australian Outdoor Living
Cane-line dining furniture works well as the anchor for an alfresco entertaining zone - pair the Glaze or Sticks dining table with a mix of dining chairs for a relaxed, unmatched look, or keep the same chair throughout for a more considered setting. Around a pool, lighter stackable pieces like the Breeze Chair suit spaces where furniture needs to move easily, while a Sticks Sofa or Bliss Sofa works better in a covered lounge area away from direct sun and splash. Layering a coffee table, such as the Glaze Coffee Table, alongside lounge seating creates a defined zone for evening entertaining separate from the dining area.
Choosing & Caring for Cane-line Furniture
Choosing materials: aluminium-framed pieces are lighter and easier to move, making them well suited to balconies and spaces that get rearranged often, while teak framing suits a fixed outdoor dining setup that stays in place year-round. Cane-line Weave pieces sit in between hand-woven for a softer look, but engineered to handle the same UV and rain exposure as the frame materials.
Weather resistance: all Cane-line outdoor furniture is designed to stay outside year-round in most Australian conditions. Cushions and upholstered pieces benefit from being brought under cover during extended heavy rain, but the frames themselves don't need to be stored away.
Care: wipe down woven and aluminium pieces with a mild soap and water solution; avoid abrasive cleaners on Cane-line Weave, which can dull the surface finish. Teak will silver naturally over time in the sun - this is a normal part of how the material weathers rather than a sign of damage, and it can be sanded and oiled if a person prefers to maintain the original colour.
