Locke & Companyn kehittämä tyylisuunta Chrysler-autoihin, joissa 1920-luvulla oli autojen sivupaneeleissa oli korista tehdyt koristeet (myöhemmin jäljennökset, koska oikea materiaali kuivui).

Canework: a Body styling feature; article in CC 3/80 on canework applied to the 1930 Cadillac V16 style 4264B (inter alia); same issue has an article on the V16. Classic Car for 3/1980 and summer 2006 have some information on canework as applied (1) to the Cadillac V-16 and (2) to a restored 1929 Rolls Royce by Brewster. The latter reads: ...Art Soutter (the last employee at the [Rolls-Royce] Springfield plant ...) [said] that the Brewster company had one employee who used thickened paint and squeezed it through a tool, as you would decorate a cake. The [twin?] horizontal lines were applied first, followed by the vertical then the diagonal. Decorative canework or "French cane" was used on car bodies from the beginnings of the automobile; it became a popular feature on formal European coach-work in the twenties. Initially real cane was used but the results and durability were mediocre. Applied later by hand with a paint mixture from a tube, it was a tiresome and expensive operation. In the late teens France introduced the "cloth-paste" method which was easier to apply; cost was also reduced because the new method did not need so many coats of primer or base paint. All the painter had to do was measure exactly the size and shape of each panel to be thus decorated and make simple templates for the cane supplier. There were two methods of applying the pre-cut cane-cloth panels. The first was to glue them in place with a special mixture of glue; two coats of varnish were applied after the glue had dried at least 24 hours and a copper or cane beading applied to outline each panel. The other method was to apply a thick coat of varnish and press the cane panels into place before the varnish got too dry; finally two further light coats of clear varnish were applied. The cane design came in a number of sizes, the most popular being sizes 55 (approx. ½" between rows) and 90 (approx. ¾" between rows). When correctly applied the double [twin] lines of "cane" form the horizontal and vertical part of the design, with the single lines as the diagonals [LaC (circa 1919), pp. 338 and 341].

Olisi kai parempi sanoa rottingista tehty sivupaneeli : )

Molemmat kuulostavat yhtä oudoilta tässä yhteydessä.
