If you have to restore a less valuable piece, fibre rush is preferable. Fibre rush is a synthetic material made from a very tough grade of paper which is twisted and colored to resemble natural rush cord. It is easy for the beginner to handle because it doesn’t have to be soaked or twisted. It is less expensive than natural rush, just as strong and, to the average person, it looks the same. Fibre rush is also sold by the pound. It takes about two and one-half pounds to complete an average chair.

The pattern used for rush must be worked on a chair with raised corners and solid rungs. This pattern may also be worked in sea-grass and cord seating.
