A hand caned chair has holes drilled into the seat of the chair. The cane is laced through these holes and looped underneath the seat. This style of cane is woven by hand one strand at a time.

If you turn your chair upside-down you can see where the cane is looped and knotted along the bottom of the seat.

A machine caned chair has a groove along the edge of the chair seat where a pre-woven sheet of cane is pressed in and held in place with a spline. If you turn your chair upside-down, you will not see any knots or loops of cane along the bottom of the seat.
